How are keys handed over and check-in done?
The owner or agent hands over the keys when signing the acceptance protocol, recording the property condition and meter readings. The protocol is an important document: keep a copy until the end of the contract to correctly get the deposit back.
Can I extend the rental in Fort Lauderdale?
Yes, extension is done via an additional agreement to the current contract 30–60 days before it ends. The price may change (usually +5–10%), but owners value long-term tenants and often keep conditions as they are.
