    Breaking the lease contract in Texas.
    I just got laid off and I am having to vacate my apartment before the lease term is over. I already gave the 30 day notice to the property managers. Is it in their right to charge me re letting fees?:confused:

    It's their right to hold you responsible for monthly rent through when your lease would otherwise expire if they so choose. Many rentals will allow you to pay to find a new tenant in lieu of continuing to pay rent.
