I have seen this question asked several times and the answer seems to be the same. I am a nurse and know all cases are individauls like patients are supposed to be treated.. I have grown up with a seizure disorder and have led a normal life. I have been able to drive and have a job. I had been in one property that belongs to my landlord for three years and then moved this house that is also hers, so I signed a year lease. Then in that year my condition decided to worsen and I had a car accident. I totalled my car and now I am unavle to get to the nearest bus stop that is 6.5 miles away. I have talked with my landlord and she is alreadyt actively seeking tenants, but I need to move ASAP. Friends have helped with rides, but it is hard burdening all the time. There has to be a way to break it as to be able to move near a bus stop, so I can get to work without bothering others. I do not want to lose my job due to missed days.

Have you checked with the bus company ? They may offer a service that comes to your door. Many states and municipalities have busses that run into neighborhoods and pick you up for an increased fee. Its usually by appointment but you could call and ask. What state are you in because most services of this kind aren't advertised but they are out there. The cost is usually double what bus fare is but then again they come right to you. Its more like a shuttle service then to think of it like a taxi. Your not the only stop or passenger on the bus.

It should say in your lease how to move early. There is usually something about buying your way out by paying the remaining months until a new tenanat is found this way you can still move and a new tenant can move in faster to release you from your debt.

I am sorry, the landlord could be forced to make some standard accomidations, ramps, rails for bath as long as it is not too costly. If they do not make the accomidations to the home that would be required normally you can break a lease for that, although there is no real law to back it up, the ADA is vague and most housing courts don't want to rule against disabilities.

The issue here it is nothing about the home except its location. But you should check out, almost all locations have special bussing for the disabled that will send a smaller van to your home to pick you up.
