1. Florida Residential Lease Agreement Sample

The sample lease agreement below describes a contract between “Landlord” Anna Kyle and “Tenant” Nicole Chang. She agrees to rent a condominium in Orlando for $800 per month for a fixed term. The tenant agrees to pay for all utilities and services for the premises.

This is an excellent example of a simple lease agreement’s provisions and how one should look in its final form.
