New Cost Savings for Landlords

How interesting, is it only in the cases of broken leases, or any leases?

Nice that they did a little to relieve some of the landlord pain, too bad there is generally not any leftover deposit in most lease breaches.

I agree with Bob Crane.  At least there is a little relief to landlords. 

Florida absolutely needs this law. So many landlords don't want to spend the little money to rekey locks when a tenant vacates when it really is in your own best interests & protects everyone including the landlord. My company made this a policy years ago for liability reasons & I'm so glad we did. I once had a tenant call me asking who else had a key to her rental because she heard noises downstairs every night & thought someone was in the house. (Her husband never heard these sounds but she insisted). It gave me such peace of mind being able to say that they were the only one's we had given keys to and our spare which we keep locked in a secure location. It is worth every bit of the $99 to rekey all your locks before new tenants move in.
