Impact 7/10
HB 1417 preempted regulation of residential tenancies to the state, repealing all local rent control in Florida and barring new ordinances. It nullified Miami-Dade's voter-approved 2022 measure capping annual rent increases at inflation. DeSantis signed the bill June 29, 2023 and it took effect July 1, 2023, as Miami-area renters faced some of the steepest post-pandemic rent increases in the country.
