Tenant's Death. ... Landlord's Failure to Repair. ... Landlord's Failure to , Inspect, or Repair a Smoke Alarm.

Breaking a lease early in Texas usually means paying your landlord a reletting fee—but not always. Unfortunately, Texas tenants hoping to break their lease early don't have a lot of legal leverage. Your landlord isn't required to let you terminate your lease, except in a handful of very specific scenarios.

For rental periods of at least one month, one month after the day notice is given. For rental periods of less than one month, "the day following the expiration of the period beginning on the day on which notice is given and extending for a number of days equal to the number of days in the rent-paying period."

In most cases, you won't be able to escape a rental agreement with no consequences just because you closed on a house. Some leases, however, might have something called a home buying clause in the agreement.

"Under New York law, if you're not in a rent-regulated apartment, there's something we call the 'Stevie Wonder rule'— the lease has to be signed, sealed, and delivered," says Sam Himmelstein, a lawyer who represents residential and commercial tenants and tenant associations.

1) You must provide written notice of your intent to terminate early, including a move- out date. 2) Your written termination notice must include payment of the reletting fee listed in paragraph 28 of your lease agreement. The reletting fee is typically 150% of one month's rent.

Signing a lease means that you are legally obligated to live up to the lease terms, including rent payments and late rent fees. So, if every adult in the property signs the lease and the main tenant fails to pay rent, the landlord can legally pursue the other tenants to pay any late fees or overdue rent.

All tenancy agreements should be signed by both the landlord and the tenant before the tenant moves in. A tenancy agreement that hasn't been signed may mean one or both parties are not bound by the terms within it.
