Hello,
My question is about Lease-Breaking:
WE have a 1 year lease in a 3 dwelling brownstone apartment that expires end of February - we've been there 4 years. The L.L. has offered us another year Lease. We are currently looking to buy a home but have no idea when that will actually happen.
IF we notify the land-lady that we are moving, IS she ALLOWED to try and collect rent from us for an entire YEAR? HOW does this normally work? Are we really expected to time a home purchase with the lease expiration?
The current lease has some clause that "Requires" us to give one months notice if we plan not to renew it.
THANKS
J.K.
