When can I terminate my lease? How soon?
If the property lacks basic utilities or there is an imminent threat to health and safety, then you can likely terminate the lease immediately. If there is a threat to health and safety, but it’s not imminent, then you can likely terminate the lease upon 30 days written notice. When you purchase this letter, you’ll answer a few questions to help you determine whether you can terminate immediately or whether you must way 30 days. You’ll select your preferred date for lease termination, and that date will become part of the letter.
