Tenet wanting to break lease

Derek Kroeger
Posted

I have a tenet in Michigan that called yesterday to say she got accepted into senior housing. We are 3 months into a 12 month lease. What are my legal rights? Can I go after the remaining 9 months of rent for her breaching the lease?

@Derek Kroeger

I agree with the other two. For the future, I've heard of people adding a part to their lease about breaking it early, saying something where the tenant has to pay equivalent of 2 months rent to break it early.
