Pool Maintenance Person

pool maintenance person
As a landlord, what should i be doing here?!?!?

I rented out a house i own to 3 people a couple and their friend. now the friend wants to back out of their year long lease(it has only been 3 months) this third person as always paid thier rent late. she is stating a list of things that are lies. ie, the house was unsanitary when she moved, my possesions were still in the house when she moved in( meaning the dinner table and patio furniture, which i asked them if they wanted and they said they did) and that the pool maintenance was not be provided(which it is) what should i do in this position. should i sue her? i live in orlando, fl if there is anyone out there who knows flordia’s legal system. THANX!!! enjoy the 10 points, whoever gives me some much needed good advice!

Ideally, you will have documented the state of the house prior to renting it (e.g. photos). This is always a good idea, for the protection of both the landlord and the tenant.

It sounds as though only the third person wants out of the lease.
Have you spoken to the couple? Do they want to stay? Will they be able to afford the rent without a third roommate? If all three
of the people signed the lease, they are generally ‘jointly and severally liable’, meaning that you can legally go after one or all three of them for rent.

There’s a very good chance that Orlando has a local landlord/tenant’s council (most major cities do). Before you contemplate legal action (which may be expensive, time-consuming, and fruitless) I’d suggest contacting them for assistance.
