Early Termination Fee

Does anyone charge an early termination fee when a tenant wants to break the lease early? If so, did you write it into the lease?

Thanks in advance!

YES! We do an early termination fee equal to two month's rent. A lot of people just do a one month's rent, but our properties are a little higher price points and can take a little longer to re-lease than lower end rentals.
