Can i break a lease on a rental home if i buy a new home before the lease on the rental is up. bjb?

spot

It really depends on the lease term. Read your lease. There may be a specific amount you have to pay or you may have to keep paying rent till it's rented out, etc. Your lease should tell you.

Tim B

YES, JUST GIVE 30 DAY NOTICE. THERE SHOULD BE A CLAUSE IN YOUR CURRENT LEASE.

bianca

i don't know from what state are you, but in many cases NO. ask your attorney about this, and you can also talk with your landlord about your moving out - maybe if you help him find new tenants for your apartments , they will not mind you breaking the lease

glorymomof3

You can but if you have a fickle landlord he may try to sue you for what is remaining. Seeif you can sublease the place until your lease is up or see can you pay a penalty to break it (usually 1 month rent). That way it will look good on your part...

Chris N

oh no without lossing your deposit. Some real estate company let you if you use there agent in the house your buying deal . Always easist to ask the landlorn and give plenty of notice

Crystal

Big Bear

Read your lease regarding early termination.
You can break any lease-the question is how much are they going to charge you for getting out of it?

buggerguy2

i believe so , but u loose your damage deposit

curiositycat

Read your current lease to see what the penalties and fines are.

darkforestjerry

You can always sublet your apt. or home.

McDreamy

yes. but you have to pay the balance of the rent.

endsjustmeans

If you give your landlord plenty of time to rent the place out, there shouldn't be a problem. Or, try to sublet it.

atimms

you sure can. You just have to pay the rouletting fees and whatever else the lease contract says you must pay if you break the lease for whatever reason. Call your landlord and be super nice to him and tell him that you purchased a house and ask him what is the cheapest way for you to get out of your lease. He will tell you. make sure he doesn't screw you though. Check you contract and maybe speak to an attorney if the charges are really high to see if everything is legitimate. Hope this helps
