termination of tenancy contract
we hav signed a contract till december for our appartment. we want to terminate the contract. but the owner is saying tht we hav to give 2 months rent if we want to leave it. we are giving him 2 months notice but he is saying tht no we hav to pay 2 months rent while in the contract there is no such condition even there is nothing like notice period as well in the contract. its just a simple contract in which only rent and tenure is mentioned. no notice perioed no other condition...we need advice in this respect.
thnx
If you have signed a contract until December that does not have a clause for early termination then it is legally assumed that you owe the rent until December. If he is giving you a two month penalty then you could be considered lucky not to pay the full amount of rent until that time.
