- What is a roommate agreement?
- A roommate agreement is a private contract among people sharing a rental. It covers rent splits, utilities, chores, guests, and quiet hours. It does not replace the master lease with the landlord.
- Does a roommate agreement bind the landlord in Florida?
- No. Only parties who sign the master lease have rights and duties against the landlord. Roommates who are not on the lease are not tenants of the landlord unless the landlord adds them in writing.
- Who gets the security deposit back?
- The landlord returns deposit money to whoever is named on the lease, following Florida’s 15-day rule. Roommates should agree in writing how to split any refund among themselves.
