Hello, can I move without giving a 30 days notice and paying a full months of rent?
Here's the background:
I have lived in this building for a little over a year, there is a pool on the first level of the premises and a restaurant next to it (off of the building main lobby), both are owned by the same person. Although it has never been extremely quiet, it was bearable until recently...
Recently the owners have realized they can make a lot more money if they turn the restaurant into a nightclub, thus they are now charging a $20.00 cover and working with club promoters to pack 200 some people in the pool for these parties/raves. They set-up a DJ and the music is played so loud my apartment literally vibrates, the parties last all day on Sundays (till about 11:00 PM) and now they are having the parties on weeknights as well, three times this week it lasted till 2:00 AM. I have called the cops many times, but I don't think they ever show up as the music doesn't ever get lowered to a descent volume.
Not only can I no longer enjoy the pool that was supposed to be part of an amenity I signed into, but I cannot even have peace and quiet in my own apartment on weekends and evenings, I can't sleep because of the unreasonable noise, I can't hear myself think and I feel like I'm in a state of nerves the entire time, I just want to cry.
Thankfully my lease has ended, but I know I have to (legally) provide a 30 days notice to the landlord and pay the full last month of rent.
Does anyone know if I can avoid this due to the circumstances? I cannot fathom the thought of being here another 30 days, I want out now I'm desperate and don't know what else to do, on the same note I can't afford to pay double rent.
If anyone has some information I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks!
