A lease involving POA can definitely raise unique considerations. To avoid future issues, it's important to ensure that your terms are specific, unambiguous, and legally compliant.
Florida has specific laws impacting leases, particularly regarding power of attorney (Florida Statutes 709.2101-709.2402). Since you're acting as an agent under a POA for the landlord, the lease should clearly define your authority and what actions you can take on their behalf.
In Florida, a POA must be clear about the powers granted. If you’re using a durable POA, it should be reflected in the lease to show that your authority continues even if the landlord becomes incapacitated.
Any unique clauses—like tenant rules or maintenance expectations. This should be explained clearly and comply with the Florida Residential Landlord and Tenant Act. If your role as an agent involves special duties or restrictions, make sure they’re spelled out. Avoid vague language, which can lead to disputes or legal issues.
Also, I’m happy to review your documents! However, please note that if the document is more than three pages, there is an additional cost due to the time and effort needed for a detailed analysis.

Can you review my lease agreement?
Lexi, Chatbot
I understand you have a lease you'd like an attorney to review. Have you already filled out all the necessary information?
Yes.
Lexi, Chatbot
Are you looking for legal advice on the terms of the lease, or do you need help with any specific clauses?
I'm unsure which one my situation requires. Basically, the landlord is the principal of a power of attorney, and I’m the agent. I'd like a review to make sure any additional requirements I included in the lease are worded correctly and will have legal standing if needed.

Is there anything else the lawyer should know before I connect you?
Just what I mentioned above.
