Frequently Asked Questions

Your Real Estate Questions Answered

How do zoning laws affect property use?

Zoning laws are set by local governments to regulate the development and use of land. These laws can dictate the type of buildings allowed on a property, the kinds of activities that can take place, and even the height and setback of structures. If your property use doesn’t align with local zoning ordinances, you may need to apply for a variance or possibly rezone the property, both processes for which legal guidance is recommended.

What should I do if I'm facing a property lien?

A property lien can be placed on your real estate as a result of unpaid debts, whether they are related to taxes, contractors, or through court judgments. If you discover a lien on your property, it’s wise to address it promptly. You can pay off the debt, challenge the lien if it’s unwarranted, or negotiate with the creditor. Legal advice is beneficial in navigating these options to protect your property rights.

What should I know before entering a commercial lease agreement?

Before signing a commercial lease, understand all its terms thoroughly. This includes the lease duration, payment terms, what constitutes a breach of contract, and your rights as a tenant. Also, review clauses regarding property improvements, subleasing, and termination conditions. Consulting with a lawyer can help clarify these terms and ensure the lease agreement meets your business needs.

What are common reasons for real estate litigation?

Real estate litigation can commonly involve disputes over contract breaches, property defects not disclosed during the sale, boundary and title issues, and landlord-tenant disagreements. These disputes often require legal proceedings to resolve ownership, financial responsibilities, and compliance with real estate laws.

How can I resolve a real estate dispute without going to court?

Resolving disputes outside of court can often be achieved through negotiation or mediation, where a neutral third party helps both sides reach an agreement. This process can be less confrontational and more cost-effective than going to court. Arbitration is another method, where an arbitrator makes a binding decision on the dispute. Each of these alternatives requires careful preparation and understanding of the legal issues involved, which a lawyer can provide. And if these alternatives fail, our real estate litigation lawyer can help you deal with the court.

Landlord & Tenant Litigation

Miami Landlord & Tenant Litigation Lawyer

When landlords are faced with tenants who refuse to pay or otherwise violate the terms of their contracts, it’s critical to work with a real estate attorney who understands landlord and tenant litigation law. Landlords face challenges on a daily basis. Many times, those obstacles involve tenants who refuse to pay their rent or become a nuisance on the property. Our job is to aggressively represent landlords and property owners in court. The entire arena of Florida property law, including landlord-tenant law, can be confusing and complex. The prospect of sifting through statutes to create a solid legal defense can be overwhelming to many landlords.

Do the attorneys at Perez Mayoral, P.A. draft residential and commercial leases?

We absolutely do. The first defense against a problem tenant is a well-drafted lease with precise terms a court can easily apply to the facts of a dispute. Our skilled attorneys draft rental leases in clear language so there can be no misunderstanding about a tenant’s duties under the lease. When disputes arise, we are often able to resolve problems with a tenant’s performance by drafting letters clarifying the tenant’s obligations. When conflicts escalate, we provide advice on how to proceed without incurring legal liability.
