Q: My apartment has flooded 7 times with sewage water and I want out of my lease is there any reason I have to give notice?
So I talked to my property manager and they said that I’m responsible for paying next months rent since I have to give them a 30 day notice and that they also have to send it in to their corporate approval. I was also told that I’m responsible for the rent because they have “sent someone to fix the problem and it as stopped then came back” 7 times now. Was wanting your opinion
A: An attorney would need to read your lease in order to give sound advice. An attorney could try to negotiate a mutual termination of your lease so that no lawsuit against you gets filed. If you simply decide that your landlord breached the lease and you vacate, you will likely get sued.
