Below is a concise, plain-English outline of how residential evictions typically work in Florida as of July 2025. (Commercial leases, mobile-home parks, and federally subsidized housing follow slightly different rules.)
Florida landlords must start with written notice that tells the tenant how long they have to fix the problem or leave.
Non-payment of rent: a 3-day notice ( three full business days – weekends and legal court holidays don’t count) demanding the past-due rent or possession. Fla. Stat. § 83.56(3) was amended so those excluded days are now explicit. (flsenate.gov, leg.state.fl.us)
Lease violations (pets, noise, etc.): a 7-day notice to cure (tenant gets a week to correct the violation) or, for serious repeat violations, a 7-day unconditional quit notice with no chance to cure. (doorloop.com)
The notice can be hand-delivered, mailed (add five extra mailing days), or posted on the door in a sealed envelope that says “Notice to Tenant.”
If the tenant neither cures nor vacates, the landlord files a “Complaint for Eviction” in county court and pays the filing and summons fees (about $185 plus service costs). The clerk issues a summons that the sheriff or a certified process server must hand to the tenant or post on the premises. The tenant then has five business days to:
Deposit any rent claimed as owed into the court registry and
File a written answer raising any defenses (e.g., improper notice, landlord’s failure to maintain the unit).
Failure to do both usually lets the landlord request a default judgment of possession.
In uncontested cases, the court can enter judgment within days. If the tenant contests, a short hearing is scheduled. Most cases still resolve within a few weeks because Florida’s eviction docket is handled “summarily” under Chapter 83. After judgment for the landlord, the clerk issues a writ of possession to the sheriff
The sheriff posts the writ on the door. This gives the tenant 24 hours (weekends and holidays do not pause this clock) to move out. If the tenant remains, the sheriff returns, removes any occupants, and turns the unit over to the landlord. (flsenate.gov)
Timing in practice.
With prompt service and an uncontested case, a straightforward non-payment eviction can take as little as three to four weeks. This is from notice to lock-out. Contested cases, claims for damages, or improper paperwork can extend the timeline by months.
This overview is for general information only; it is not legal advice. Landlords and tenants should consult Chapter 83 of the Florida Statutes. A qualified attorney can offer counsel on their specific situation. You can read more here at Nolo.com
