Study Notes
Security Deposit Notification
- Landlords must provide written notification detailing the bank name, address, and deposit information to tenants.
- Failing to do so, as in the case of a tenant who paid a $1,200 security deposit, is a violation of F.S. 83.
Personal Assistant Role
- Personal assistants can handle tasks such as marketing under direction but may only act as couriers for contract transport, maintaining legality.
Property Tax Exemptions
- Churches are exempt from property taxes, unlike public institutions such as county courthouses and schools, or military properties.
Federal Reserve Discount Rate
- An increase in the Federal Reserve's discount rate typically leads to an increase in interest rates for short-term credit.
Complaint Process for Violations
- The process includes filing a complaint, investigating it, determining probable cause, and conducting hearings before a final order and potential judicial review.
Homestead Law Protection
- The constitutional homestead law protects real property from forced sales due to overdue real property taxes, but not for mortgages or credit card debts.
Telemarketing Call Restrictions
- Federal telemarketing laws limit solicitation calls to the hours of 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM.
Types of Liens
- A special assessment lien is an example of a superior lien, taking precedence over other types like judgment or income tax liens.
Notification of Security Deposit Claims
- Landlords must notify tenants within 30 days of moving out if they intend to claim any portion of the security deposit.
Appraisal Adjustments
- When appraising properties, additional features like a garage valued at $18,000 should be added to all comparable properties rather than subtracted from the subject property.
Breach of Contract Remedies
- Mitigated performance is not a recognized remedy for breach of contract, while compensatory damages, specific performance, and liquidated damages are.
Reinstating Expired License
- A sales associate whose license expired 20 months ago must complete Course I and pass the end-of-course exam to regain eligibility for real estate work.
