FAQ
Your obligations include paying rent on time, complying with lease provisions, and providing appropriate notice when terminating a lease. Your rights include living in a safe and habitable environment, and being free from discrimination or retaliation.
A lease termination clause usually allows a tenant to break a lease early in exchange for a penalty fee. The penalty fee is oftentimes the equivalent to one month's rent or two month's rent. The landlord may also require that tenants exercising this clause provide them with sufficient notice.
You are responsible for: paying your rent on time, paying any late fees, keeping the place clean and safe, not letting anyone else damage it, not breaking the law, disposing of your garbage, and following your landlord's rules. If you break your lease, then it may become a legal issue.
You may rent without any formal agreement, or you may have a lease agreement. The most common type of renter in Tennessee is a renter who signs a lease agreement to pay rent each month throughout the year. Renters may be asked to provide a security deposit. Lease agreements are legally binding contracts.
So if you breach the terms of your lease, you would be breaching the terms of such contract. If you are found by the court to be in breach of the lease, the court could order you to pay damages, legal costs and/or ask you to put right any breach if it is possible to do so.
You must give your landlord written notice of your intent to terminate your tenancy for military reasons. Once the notice is mailed or delivered, your tenancy will terminate 30 days after the date that rent is next due, even if that date is several months before your lease expires.
In general, you can only end the tenancy early if your landlord agrees. Your landlord does not necessarily have to do so. You will remain responsible for paying the rent until the end of the tenancy contract or the next break clause point.

No, lease agreements do not need to be notarized in Tennessee. As long as the lease is signed by at least one party, notarization is not necessary. The landlord and tenant can agree to have the lease notarized if they wish, but it is optional.
Your Tennessee tenant may also be legally justified to withhold rent or even break the lease if their rental unit is no longer habitable. Housing codes must be abided by for the lease to remain applicable, as is the law. Every state has specific health and safety codes that the landlord must meet per each rental unit.
