@@iancorzine Please help me, I signed a 1 yr. lease on Jan. 15th 2021 and had to move out Feb. 6th ( not even 30 days later!) due to constant harassment by the next door neighbors, they would get drunk and bang on my walls to scare and harass me at 4am and even rammed his car into my bedroom wall with my head against that same wall his car could have crashed through and killed me and threatened me verbally and other neighbors as well and I ended up in the hospital due to the stress and I called and left voicemails etc for the landlord and he did nothing to help me and he is refusing to return any of my $3500 cash I gave him! it was $1675 rent plus $1500 security deposit and $400 dog deposit for my 2 dogs so almost $3500 and he will not refund me anything. Cant I use breach of peace or covenant of quite enjoyment? What form do I need to get? Please help me this is the 1st time I have even signed a rental lease in my life and I had to because my husband of 28 yrs. left me last year in March for a 34 yr old and filed for divorce so I am so lost and now homeless
@@iancorzine i newly move-in in a paying guest and my problem is that I want to move out eary but the agreement I signed states 'if i move out before completion of 1year, I will lose my security deposit.
2 days ago my landlord tricked me into signing a year long lease when he had agreed on a month to month lease. I really only saw MOMTH TO MONTH at the top & went by his word. After signing, he said we don’t do month to month here. He LIED to me & trapped me.
As a landlord, I want to thank you for the video. This is a proper way to address the issue that leaves all parties in a good position. As a landlord, I would be open to find a new tenant to sign a new lease so that you didn't have to pay the $300.00 gap. As long as we can find an acceptable tenant at the same rent rate.
Hey Sjtola. Thanks. Yeah, I this time in our history requires us to be proactive -- don't just run away from the problem. Deal with it in an adult manner.
Here’s what worked in my past. Ask a friend who’s out of state to send you a letter on their letter head saying you got a new job out of state and have to leave. Most leases will let you get out. Check your state. On this one. These landlords are greedy as hell.
Good advice! I’m stuck in a similar situation. Only problem I have is I’m in a tenancy agreement and the two room mates I’m in the tenancy agreement with won’t accept any of the people I find to replace me just to be difficult 😤 I wouldn’t wish this on anyone!
really wish that leases had a 30 day grace period to get out without repercussions aside from moving fees and stress for roommate reasons/stuff that there's no way you would've known about on a tour. I've been forced to move from some nicer places (and I was the one with all the furniture and shared stuff) because of psychotic roommates...and had to really just suffer the whole year.
I want to get out of my apartment because my neighbors are abusive and make a lot of noise and I have PTSD and they know it and still continue to to do so
Please I need answers! Does the landlord agree to break the lease if my place is molded and overall it’s not a capable “living environment “ ? I have sent emails and pictures and these people don’t fix anything. So I will go confront the landlord to break my lease early but do I have more of an edge ?
Hello Sir, some of it is a good idea not all, like finding a new tenant which is not your responsibility, who is a friend will be will be unusual to say the least. And where you will pay his $300.00 rent that is due, isn't that putting the same burden on you for moving to a cheaper place in the first place. you are back where you started, will you be leaving your security deposit for the the new tenant, or will the new tenant put down his own deposit, if he has to put a deposit don't you think he should pay his own $300.00 rent? Only if you"re renting an efficiency that now a days cost $1200.00 plus your $300.00 to pay his rent then where's your savings? People read the contract first, then sign it. Make sure people before signing a lease take it home, or to a lawyer and don't sign the lease that day, unless both of you make sure you can get out of the lease with one month's notice.
Ian, I own investment property as well and I agree. This is how the California Residential Lease agreement is written and you covered it all perfectly, even down to getting a credit report for new tenant. Excellent video, hope you have a fantastic day.
Does this apply to Arizona law as well, when dealing directly with landlords with a 6month lease? I was unaware of the $200 untilities that was not included in the contract. I feel like I’m being played because between me and another Roomate we’re paying the whole mortgage.
So do you have to stay in the property until a new tenant signs the lease. That’s per the original lease agreement. And after that are you responsible for the new tenant’s actions, meaning if they don’t pay the rent is that going to come and Vite you in the future even though you had nothing to do with finding new tenant?
What to do when the property manager doesn’t want to work with you? I offered to find someone to replace me but they’re refusing. I just lost my job and don’t have any other reason to stay in the state of Massachusetts.
Great video! Do you know if this could work across states? Live in Louisiana and have family in Washington state trying to get out of their lease so they can move down here.

Someone tweeted that it's possible to make twitter reinstate a banned account because of documents they submitted to the SEC regarding their terms for investors. I've tried searching for it but no luck. Do you know what it is?
Hi Ian, What if your lease says absolutely no sub-leasing. What is a good way to break your lease not just for the covid, but a lot of other reasons. Please advise I really want out.
Hey Anna. I hear you and what you’re going through is hard. Anything is negotiable. You have to figure out your leverage first. Does the landlord want an unhappy tenant? Is your term nearly up and, in these uncertain times, with the landlord like a longer-term lease? Once you have that, you need to come up with a plan that could put your landlord in as good a position as possible which is in alignment with your desire to get out of the lease. So, like in the video, you could substitute someone else for yourself. Or you could offer to leave the the lease early so that the landlord can lock down another tenant for a longer-term. You could ask if the landlord has any less expensive properties to lease that you could take over. Never give up. Words on a page can be changed by mutual agreement.
So people will still pay whatever amount for something that's not even theirs anymore. I'd much rather sublet and continue living in a place if I'm still going to pay any amount for it. It simply makes the most sense. It's one thing to buy someone a tank of gas or up to a full charge for an electric vehicle. Even to buy someone a house. But to make continuous payments on an apartment or similar and not even live in the unit - it's a waste of money on something that can continue being used by the 'helper.'

Question for you- I’m considering moving into a place now even though I’m without a job at the moment. The leasing company is requesting double deposit ($1800). I have a high credit score & they’ve seen a copy of my bank statements knowing I have sufficient funds. It feels weird, almost racist but I don’t want to jump to conclusions. Is this legit? Paying a double deposit? They knew I was in between jobs before I even saw the property. Should I just cut my loses & look at another property?

Not only roaches I’ve have scorpions thankfully I’ve seen them & killed them before they could get away or sting anyone. I’ve also had wolf spiders enter my home.

Hi, I share a lease with my roommate and we've lived in the apartment together 4 years although I had lived at same apartment since Jan of 2012. I had accepted to share my apartment with my friend (the current roommate) in July of 2017. Now I want to search for an apartment for myself and not have any roommates. I feel Im done with roommates. I've learned that having a roommate is a mistake. I had asked my landlord if our apartment is month to month rent since we have not signed a new lease over a year now and he said, that it is month to month rent. I did some searching for a new apartment for myself and found the apartment that I like. problem is, its ready for move in date of April 1st 2022, but we're at the end of the first week of March 2022. would this be too soon of a notice for both my landlord and roommate? Because really it's supposed to be 30 day notice for both my landlord and roommate to find another tenant or if my roommate wishes to stay on his own. what would be the best thing i should do or how xan I not miss this opportunity of getting the apartment I like by april 1st 2022?
its so annoying how its difficult it is for the tenant to get out of the lease.
