Real Estate Law (esp. Landlord-Tenant) - Break in Lease question


Expert: Michelle Mangen - 6/19/2009

Question
My husbands (of 2 days) apartment complex owner sold the complex June 1st. My husband no longer wants to live there due to the fact that I have my own apartment that is out-of state that we want to move to.  Is it a general law to request to get out of a lease due to this with written notice by us? Any advice would be helpful.

Thank you~

Answer
Holli:

I am not sure where you live. In WI you are not able to get out of a lease with no penalty (unless you are military that has been activated).

I'm not sure what the Law is where you live so it's best you talk directly to your Landlord but be prepared that you will have to pay for the lease/rent until they find someone else to rent.
