As you know, portions of Chapter 83 of the Florida Statutes require certain notices to be in writing and delivered to the tenant by hand delivery or U.S. Mail.

Effective July 1, 2025 notices may be sent via eMail!

This means, among others, the following notices may be send by email instead of hand delivery or U.S. Mail:

• 3-Day notice for unpaid rent
• 7-Day Warning Notice for non-compliance
• Notice of intention to impose claim against security deposit

Both the Landlord and Tenant must each sign a "Notification by Email" Addendum to their Rental Agreement. Naturally, we have a sample Addenda ready for download. Please check with your attorney to be sure this document is suitable for your purposes.

Now, one thing is certain to occur: Your tenant will claim they did not receive your email. However software exists that will notify you as soon as your email is received by the tenant and in some cases you will be notified when email is opened.  This is likely to be the proof a Judge will need to rule that the tenant did receive your Notice.

These technical fixes vary depending on your hardware and software platforms. We recommend GROK within the x.com platform (formerly Twitter) or directly via GROK.com or you may prefer ChatGPT.com. These Artificial Intelligence systems will amaze you with their abilities to answer your questions and find effective solutions to various problems.

So, now Florida landlords can deliver 3-Day Notices to their tenant who have not paid rent on time.  All in about 2 minutes each. Very, very cool!
