Forum / Other / NJ Tenant broke the lease, return of the deposit
Hi, Tenant gave one month notice that they are moving out before the end of the lease (vacating 3 months early), to newly bought house. As the tenant is breaking the lease, when does the landlord has to return the security deposit (after deducting repair cost etc)? Is it at the end of the lease OR within thirty days of vacating the property OR any other rules apply? Thanks in advance.
