Breaking lease

Account Closed

Posted

my tenant is breaking her lease 3 months early because she decided she didn't like the neighbors in the condo and wanted to by a house. She claims she will pay rent until I can find another renter.

At the point I find a renter , can I still collect her rent? The lease says she is responsible for rent for the duration of the lease and does not having any outs if I find someone else. I didn't think I'd have to deal with this because I figured if someone is breaking the lease, I couldn't get anything out of them anyways. If she decides not to pay rent once I get a new renter, do I can a ace against her to collect the rest.

Does she get her deposit back since she broke her lease?

It may be more of a moral issue vs legal. I'm in Indiana if that matters.
