Answer 1

Yes, you should pay rent for as long as you stay there.

Answer 2

Yes you pay rent until you leave.   Why would he be expected to support you?

Answer 3

Hello!  Unfortunately, yes. You do have to pay him the rent. You are still living in his property. You do not want him to take you to court over this matter, and he has the right to do so. At least he gave you two months notice. When you go to rent a new place, the new landlords will often ask the prior landlord about how good of a tenant you are, if you pay rent on time and take proper care of the place. You want to keep him on your good side to get a favorable review.  If you don't already know what rules of the contract you allegedly violated, then ask what they were. You can offer your side of the story and if necessary, apologize for the error. Be prepared for the new landlord to ask you about the contract violation. Don't bad mouth the current landlord to the new one. Selling out or kissing butt is sometimes a nasty part of life. It won't hurt you and could even help you in the future.  Good luck in finding a new home.
