Landlord Question and Answer Forum
I signed a lease a few days ago and was not told until a second before signing that the lease is for 3 years. I do not want to stay here for three years. I was not shown the apt. until after I had signed. I had already given my move out notice, had the movers there and changed my address. Please help me; I will stay a year but no longer. what can I do?

RE: Breaking a lease
Why did you sign if you didn't agree with the terms of the lease?

RE: Breaking a lease
I was told about the three years a second before signing and I had already given up my apartment, but I have good news. My landlord told me I can move out any time with a 60 days notice, no problem. I am a happy person today!

RE: Breaking a lease
We always specify the lease amount orally prior to the tenant signing. It really should be discussed prior to putting it in a lease. I'm glad it worked out for you.
