Excon,
How sure are you about the rules of Florida. I had someone leave early and I am
Suing them for breach of lease since they just left w/o any notice. I am now
Also trying to sell my house. Can I still collect for the rent as it comes due
Until I sell or rerent.

Hello milissa:
Sure, you can do it, but there will be consequenses. One of your problems, however, is the state in which you reside. Every other state requires landlords to rent their property as soon as possible to mitigate the tenant's damages. Florida doesn't do that. He can just sit back and collect rent from you. Yes, that's wrong. But, I digress.....
IF you can make a cash settlement with your landlord, for say two months rent, I would try. If you can sub-let, do that.
