Personal issues not legal grounds for breaking lease
Sunday, September 2nd, 2007Q: I was renting a room in a home but I have since had to move. I have been going through some tough times (anxiety, depression, etc.). The living conditions were unhealthy for me so I am now stuck trying to find someone to sublease my room. I simply can’t afford to pay rent at two homes. Is there any way to break a lease in this type of situation?
Property manager Robert Griswold replies: While it is understandable that your personal issues are serious challenges for you, they are not legal grounds to terminate your lease.
