QUESTION
Can court-ordered eviction notice be expedited in Spring Hill, FL
Asked on Jan 12th, 2021 on Landlord and Tenant Law - Florida
More details to this question:
I have tenants residing in my house who have been delinquent (paying mid-month instead of paying 1st of month) rent since October 2020, with non-payment for January 2021. They also have debt incurred for repair work done on the house because of their misuse. I understand it would take 4-5 weeks before eviction by marshalls? Their 12-month lease ends Jan. 31, 2021 with no assurances that they will vacate my property. Can the actual eviction be expedited in court? Pls advise.

There is no expedited evictions beause they are already expeditied, per Fla. Stat. 51. You will need to retain a landlord lawyer to handle this properly as with the COVID there is a strong chance they might be able to say the right things and stay several more months without payment at all if you botch things up. Candidly if they were damaging the house you missed an opportunity to evict them long ago and you don't want to make that mistake again.
