Being a Landlord is Exhausting
Tenant problems, maintenance issues, and property management can be overwhelming. Evictions take 30-90+ days in Florida. Meanwhile, you're still responsible for property taxes, insurance, and repairs. Many landlords just want out.

We can close in 7-60 days, much faster than traditional sales.

The Real Cost of Holding a Rental in Florida
Most landlords don't add up what they're actually spending. Here's what a typical $350,000 Florida rental costs you per year:
| Expense | Annual Cost |
|---|---|
| Property taxes | $5,250 - $7,000 |
| Insurance (FL avg) | $4,200 - $6,500 |
| Maintenance (1% rule) | $3,500 |
| Vacancy (1 month avg) | $1,800 - $2,500 |
| Property management (8-10%) | $1,700 - $2,500 |
| Repairs and cap-ex | $2,000 - $5,000 |
| Total annual carrying cost | $18,450 - $27,000 |
That's $1,500 to $2,250 per month before your mortgage payment. If your rent doesn't clear that by a healthy margin, you're losing money every month you hold the property.
Florida's Eviction Timeline Is Longer Than You Think
Florida Statutes Chapter 83, Part II governs residential tenancies. If your tenant stops paying, here's what you're looking at:
- 3-day notice to pay or vacate (non-payment), or 7-day notice for lease violations
- File eviction complaint after notice expires. Filing fee: $185-$400 depending on county
- 5 business days for tenant to respond after service
- Uncontested eviction: 30 to 90 days from filing to writ of possession
- Contested eviction: 3 to 6 months if the tenant gets a lawyer and fights it
During that entire process, you're still paying the mortgage, taxes, and insurance. And you can't shut off utilities or change locks. FL Statute 83.67 makes self-help eviction a criminal offense. Cash buyers like us buy your property with the tenant still in it, so you skip this entire process.
When Selling Your Rental Makes Financial Sense
Holding a rental only works when the math works. Here are the signs it's time to sell:
- Negative cash flow: Your expenses consistently exceed rent, and appreciation isn't making up the difference
- Insurance crisis: FL insurance premiums have doubled since 2020. If your roof is 15+ years old, some carriers won't renew your policy at all
- Deferred maintenance snowball: That $3,000 AC repair becomes a $25,000 roof plus $8,000 AC plus $4,000 plumbing repiping once you start looking
- Tenant turnover burnout: Every turnover costs $2,000-$5,000 in cleaning, repairs, vacancy, and re-leasing fees
- Better returns elsewhere: If your rental yields 4% and a money market pays 5%, the property is costing you money and stress
We've bought rentals from landlords across all 67 Florida counties. Some had great tenants but couldn't afford the insurance increases. Others hadn't collected rent in six months. We buy both situations and close on your timeline.
