Can you get out of a condo lease early?? After signing a 1 year lease contract?

Question

My Lease ends August 31st, it is a private owned condo. I signed a 1 year lease but was offered a great deal on another home but would need to move in August 10th. Am I obligated to pay the full month rents for August in the current condo, since I am ending the lease early??

Answer 1

Nope in the real world contracts have no meaning so sign em and do what you want there's nothing they can do.

Answer 2

you are obligated but you should look at your lease and see if you can sublease but if all esle fails call them and ask if you can break the lease

Answer 3

I'm sure that you can break the contract but there would be a penalty such as having to pay one extra month after you leave.  Not a big deal.

Answer 4

You cann't get out of the lease but you can move out of the condo. As long you pay the rent and things like that, or someone else does it for you. But you cann't get out of the lease until your one year is up!

Answer 5

Usually, one month is required but you had better check your lease. Some require 60 days notice, which would leave you liable for September's rent.

Give proper written notice by July 31st to terminate your lease on August 31st.

You are required to pay rent through the termination date. The landlord has no obligation to prorate or reduce the rent. You are choosing to move out early, but remain liable.
