FAQ
When Does a Rental Lease Become Legally Binding? The lease becomes legally binding when all parties have signed: the landlord and all tenants living in the unit who are 18 and older. If you're worried about situations where a lease needs to end early, learn about breaking a lease and grounds for eviction.
Kentucky Tenant Responsibilities (KRS 383.605)Tenants must comply with any and all housing and building codes that address health and safety. Tenant must maintain cleanliness of the property. Tenants must dispose of trash in a safe manner. Tenants must keep plumbing as clean as their condition allows.
A lease is automatically void when it is against the law, such as a lease for an illegal purpose. In other circumstances, like fraud or duress, a lease can be declared void at the request of one party but not the other.
If you can get your landlord's consent, and BOTH of you agree to end the lease early, then the landlord can release you from your lease. If your landlord releases you from your lease, then the landlord removes your name from the lease or voids your lease entirely.
In some circumstances, a tenant can break a fixed-term agreement early without penalty. A tenant can give 14 days' written notice to end an agreement early without penalty if: they have accepted an offer of social housing (e.g. from DCJ Housing)
A landlord and tenant can mutually agree to end a lease arrangement at any time. If you have a written lease, the termination of that lease must also be in writing. Even if you do not have a written lease agreement, putting the termination in writing will protect both parties.
