About the Florida Lease Renewal Agreement
A Florida lease renewal is a bilateral agreement extending the rental relationship for an additional term with the same parties. Florida Statute Chapter 83, Part II governs residential landlord-tenant relations. Florida has no statewide rent-control statute, so landlords may set rent for the renewal at any amount. Security deposits continue to be governed by Florida Statute 83.49.
Florida’s Lease Renewal Agreement Framework
- Statute: Florida Statute Chapter 83, Part II (Residential Tenancies)
- No statewide rent control; landlords may set renewal rent freely
- Month-to-month termination notice: 15 days (Florida Stat. 83.57)
- Security deposit: governed by Florida Stat. 83.49
- Form: signed writing by both parties is sufficient – no statutory form required
What This Document Does

Notice Requirements and Best Practices
Florida does not require statutory notice to renew a lease, but best practice is to communicate renewal intentions 60-90 days before the original lease end date. This gives both parties time to negotiate terms or seek alternatives. Without an executed renewal, the lease will expire on its end date; if the tenant remains with landlord acceptance, Florida law treats the tenancy as month-to-month.
Re-screen your renewing tenants
Before renewing, many landlords run a fresh tenant screening to check for changes in credit, eviction filings, or criminal background. Tenant Screening Background Check has been verifying renters since 2004 — credit, eviction, criminal, and employment, all with no monthly fees.
