It doesn't sound like the owner should have. But you don't know exactly what was in the lease either. Those leases can have all kinds of loopholes in them. Then again, the owner might have thought no one would ask for it back.

Every state has different laws, but I have never heard of one that allows you to get out of the lease because you move out of the area.  You can check on your state's web site for regulations regarding rentals though!\n\nYou may be better off paying the one month left on the lease and getting your deposit back than losing 2 months and the deposit.  There isn't much you can do about it  :(\n\n:(  sorry!\n\nGood luck with the new job!

Check the lease papers on your apartment.\nThere should be a clause there specifically addressing the practice of 'subletting', which your room mate is technically doing. \nThere are specific laws that address this situation. Call your local housing office.

If she is breaking the lease, then you can evict her.  I am not sure if you can do this while she is in jail.  You might want to check your laws in regard to this.

If he signed the lease, in almost all cases he is on the hook for the entire duration of the lease. An exception might be if the lease was invalid or illegal for some reason (violation of a state or local law). He might consider:\n- Offer to buy out the lease from the landlord.\n- Sublet the appartment to someone else. This usually requires cooperation with the landlord.\n- Moving out. He is still on the hook but the landlord will probably try to rerent. This will screw up your Dad's credit score.\n- Get a roommate to help pay the rent.\n- Have him find two or three jobs that combine to pay enough for him to pay his bills.\n\nGood Luck to ya!

Talk to the CAB about the tenant rights. They will be able to give you the specifics, and they're free!

Talk to your land lord, if he says no then ask if its OK for you to lease it to some one else.  You will get out of the lease and your land lord will still have a tenant

It will depend on your lease... read it.  If your unsure seek advice from a solicitor... remember just because it's in your lease doesn't mean it's legal! Get it checked out if it looks like you might not get your money back.  Most leases will have a clause so that either party can withdrawal from the agreement.  There may be a penalty for this but it could depend on the reasons behind why the lease is being broken.

Sweetie I hate to tell you this but unless it is in writing then there is really nothing you can do. You really have 2 options:\n\nOption 1: Stay there until the end of your lease\n\nOption 2: Break the lease and make payment arrangements (if the landlord allows for that) or have it go on your credit.\n\nGood Luck

I think in the UK you have to have more than one, and possibly up to three, independent complaints about domestic noise before the police will intervene and speak to the offenders.\nYou could try talking to the owner of the tenanted property to see if the occupants are in breach of the terms of the lease. Other than that, perhaps Citizens Advice may have a lawyer you can chat to about your legal options.

try to find someone else to take over the lease and then maybe the leaser will let you out of it.

I don't think you have much recourse on this.  Check your lease.

PRESUMIMG THE LEASE IS AN APARTMENT;\nIt comes down to the "fine print" in your lease. What did you sign up for? A year? Sometimes you can get out of it just by paying for the advertising until the apartment is rerented, so it's no money out of the landlord's pocket. But remind the landlord, as long as you are paying the rent, even though you don't live there they can't accept rent money from anyone else and the apartment must remain unoccupied. (they can't collect "double rent" for the same apartment)

I don't think you have a way out with the age unless she lacks mental capacity.  This has to be quite serious.  However, there are some legal protections for tenants who break leases as to how much they need to pay as a result.\n\nWhat does the lease say?  A Court very well might reject an attempt to enforce a clause that says your daughter and her girlfriend have to pay for rent for the whole term of the lease.\n\nGenerally a landlord must attempt to re rent the apartment and only charge his actual monetary losses.  Have an attorney look over the lease.  Good Luck.  Doesn't sound like the end of the world.

Yes, I believe you may sign a lease as a representative of your company. All owners need not sign.

speak to the landlord to see if the lease can be modified
