If there are serious issues with the house (i.e. things not working as they should etc) then your first step is to contact the landlord and try and get them sorted.
If they won't or cannot and it goes against the terms of the contract then you can probably get out of it.
If it is just that you can't afford it or "don't like it" then tough, you are in a contract and should have checked everything prior to signing.j |

Not happy to have a roof over your head?
The whole point of signing a lease is that you are agreeing to live there and pay the rent for a set period and the landlord agrees to let you for a fee and maintain the fabric of the property.
A contract is a contract.
Perhaps you should have spent more time considering the property before you signed the lease.
Why ask about 'your rights' - why does everyone think 'rights' can get them out of any old mess? |

Well why are you not happy? What is wrong with the place? If it is serious then you may have some rights... |

We may be able to answer your question a little better if we know why you are not happy there! |

You would need to stay there for the 6 months before you give notice or you won't get your deposit back. |

You did not state why you are not happy. If there is anything that needs sorting or fixing then you should get on to your landlord to get it sorted. Did you get a copy of your contract. You should of done if not ask for one and read through it. |

You have signed a 6 month tenancy agreement, therefore you are tied to that, that is the idea of a six month tenancy, it protects you and the landlord. Unless there is a major problem with the property, and the landlord is willing to release you, your tied to it. |

Yes you can - but you are liable for the rent and you won't get your deposit back until the 6 months are up. And also it will show on your credit referencing if you apply for another rented property as most referencing agencies contact your current/existing landlord. |

You might have rights if it's not safe! But you normally would have known before you rented! |

Maybe you just haven't adjusted to the change yet - I would wait a bit longer to see if you like the place.
One bad way to end the lease is to not pay the rent, because then you will be in breach and they will ask you to leave. This is better if an agent is managing it. If it is a private landlord - they may take illegal action to move you out. |

A contract is a contract whether or not you're happy with it. Check if you can sublet the property it should be in your lease then find someone to take it over or simply talk to your manager |

You can leave but will have to pay up to the end of the contract.
Have you got a notice period...give one months notice of leaving without any penalty. |
