Thank you so much, Ryan. I have never had this happen before and thought I had better protect myself in case they claimed they signed a lease and changed their minds. I appreciate your clear instructions. I did as you suggested and sent the form with the inclusions before I draft a new lease. 

Thank you!

Hello,

I received a deposit to hold a property. The prospective tenants signed a lease. Then the husband lost his job, before the move-in date, so they would like out of the lease since they cannot afford it. I am fine with that as I do not want tenants who are unable to afford the home. They have not moved in. I am willing to return the deposit and have found new possible tenants. I want to be sure I am not liable later because of the lease. How can I have the lease nullified by both parties?

Thank you for any guidance.

Kristine
