Naples Florida eviction questions
Q. How long does it take to evict a tenant for non-payment of rent?A. Best case scenario, about a month.
Q. How do we begin the process?
A. The eviction process for non-payment of rent in Florida begins with a valid three-day notice.
Q. What do you mean valid notice?
A. A landlord evicting a tenant for non-payment of rent must be very careful with the 3-day notice. Make sure your physical address is on the three-day notice. (No Post Office boxes.) Make sure the 3-day notice only requests unpaid rent. (Don't request late fees, or charges for the electric or water bill.) Contact me if you need a three-day notice, or if you have questions.
Q. After the 3-day notice is posted, then what?
A. If the tenant remains in the rental unit after the 3-days expire and doesn't pay the rent due, file an eviction complaint at the courthouse.
Q. What if I'm out of town?
A. Our office can help you with the entire eviction process, from getting the 3-day notice created and posted, to the writ of possession.
Q. What are the court fees to file an eviction?
A. Filing fees are $185 payable to the Clerk of Court. Service of the complaint is $40, and the Collier County Sheriff's Office charges $90 to execute the Writ of Possession. That's $210 in court fees, assuming only one defendant. If there are multiple defendants on your complaint, the fees are more. The court fees and service fees are also higher if you sue for money, in addition to possession.
