First, congratulations to your moving in! Take a moment to relax and reward yourself in your new home. As a tenant, you have every right to enjoy a positive and comfortable living environment. As a much-trusted property management partner, Ackley Florida Property Management wants to ensure that you are well-informed about your rights as a tenant. In this blog, we will explore your tenant rights, empowering you to have a fulfilling rental experience.
Let's dive in!
The Right to Clear and Transparent Lease Agreements:
Your lease agreement should outline all essential terms and conditions of your tenancy, including rent amount, due dates, lease duration, and rules and regulations. Review your lease carefully, and don't hesitate to ask us any questions or seek clarification on any provisions you find unclear.
The Right to Proper Notice for Rent Increases and Lease Renewals:
Your landlord must provide sufficient notice for rent increases and lease renewals as outlined in your lease agreement or local rental laws. This allows you time to evaluate your options and make informed decisions. At Ackley Florida Property Management, we strive to provide clear communication and timely notifications regarding any changes to your rental terms, ensuring transparency throughout your tenancy.
The Right to Security Deposits:
Your security deposit is meant to protect both you and your landlord. It should be returned promptly after your tenancy ends, minus any legitimate deductions. We conduct thorough move-in and move-out inspections, document any damages, and ensure a fair assessment of your security deposit, adhering to applicable laws and regulations.

The Right to a Safe and Habitable Home:
Your landlord has a legal obligation to provide a safe and habitable living space, including maintaining essential utilities, addressing structural issues, and ensuring compliance with health and safety codes. Report any maintenance or safety concerns promptly to our dedicated maintenance team, who will take prompt action to resolve the issue.
The Right to Privacy and Quiet Enjoyment:
You have the right to privacy within your rented premises. Your landlord must provide reasonable notice before entering your unit, except in emergency situations.
The Right to Fair and Non-Discriminatory Treatment:
It is illegal for landlords to discriminate against tenants based on factors such as race, gender, religion, disability, or family status. We are committed to providing equal treatment and opportunities for all tenants.
We respect your right to quiet enjoyment, ensuring that you can peacefully enjoy your home without undue disturbance from other tenants or external sources. If you believe you have been subjected to discrimination, please reach out to our customer support team, and we will address the issue promptly and appropriately.
