I have to break the lease which ends on June 30. I gave a 60-day notice on Jan 26 of my intent to vacate on March 28. When I signed the lease, the leasing office person told me that I only need to pay one month rent as penalty for early termination. I confirmed that with a different person in the leasing office when I gave the written notice in Jan. However, when I tried to go through the detail of vacating today, another person told me I have to pay all amount due until end of June. I don’t have any written proof of what the previous two persons told me about the one-month penalty because I was informed verbally. I read my lease, here are the clauses for breaking the lease:
1) You pay all rent due during the sixty-day notice period. 2) You tender, with your notice, the full amount that would have been due for the last month of the lease term. This amount shall constitute liquidated damages and is not a penalty.
I am confused about 2). Does it mean I have to pay rent only for one month or for all months until the end of my lease? Was I misinformed when I signed the lease or the third person misinterpret the lease? I have already paid the rent for Feb and March. How much else i need to pay?
