DeSantis' Recent Actions Impact Florida Renters, Homeowners, and Legislators

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed a bill that allows landlords to offer renters the option of paying monthly fees instead of security deposits, though it is not required. Supporters say it will help renters get into apartments without having to come up with thousands of dollars upfront, while opponents argue that the fees would not be capped and renters wouldn't be able to recoup the money.
