Bottom line: Once you sign your name to a lease agreement, you're bound to it. If you back out before moving in, the landlord will lose income they were relying on and must start all over looking for a tenant. At the least, you will be paying the rent until they find someone new.

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."

The lease should also be signed by all occupants who are adults, and state whether there is a security deposit and how it may be utilized. It should also state whether the tenant may sublease the apartment.

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.

A lease is a contract between two parties where one party, the lessor, allows the other party, the lessee, use of their property for a period of time in exchange for consideration, usually a monthly sum of money. The original owner ultimately retains possession of the property.

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.
