Answered Questions
In Florida, a room does not necessarily need a closet to be considered a bedroom (although many buyers will expect that). While some jurisdictions may have specific code requirements for closets, the Florida Building Code primarily focuses on other factors like minimum size, emergency egress, and proper ventilation.
Yes, the seller in Florida should always disclose any water damage, leaks, or flood issues. However, you shouldn't rely on their disclosure alone. It could be a situation of a vacant property, or new leak of which the current owner isn't aware, or it could be an investment property where the renters haven't told the owner about problems. Regardless of the situation, you should always have a thorough home inspection done. It's worth every penny. Check with your realtor for recommendations on reputable inspectors in the area. It could save you a ton of money and offer peace of mind.
