Nope. Except for military personnel, I don't know any state that allows for breaking a lease due to a relocation.
Talk to your company. If they are forcing the relocation they may have a policy that will reimburse you for the penalty. If not, you have three choices: 1) negotiate a buyout payment (generally 2-3 months rent) 2) subket (if the lease allows) 3) find someone the landlord approves to move in immediately after you leave so the landlord suffers no lease. Since Florida doesn't force the landlord to seek a new tenant, he can hold you on the hook for the remaining term of the lease, |

We live in Florida also and we have a clause that can be included in our monthly payment to be able to forfeit the lease for house purchase, loss of job, or job relocation. Also, if a tenant does not want the clause added all they have to do is talk to the management company and with a 30-day notice can relinquish the lease and forfeit the deposit.
You might want to speak with the management company and offer them perhaps a full month's rent and forfeit of the deposit. But as for tenant's right on leaving because of job relocation, your job may offer the management (apartment) company a sum of money to release you or reimburse you for your expenses. Other than that, only military personal can truly leave without any circumstances by law! Hope this helps!! God Bless :)) |

We misread our lease, we thought we only had to give a 30 day notice. We actually gave a 45 day notice. ( we purchased a home) However, our property management company said we are liable for the rent until they find a new tenant. Which we completely understand. My issue is that in the last 20...
