Early Lease Termination

Hunter Jordan
Posted

My tenant wants to terminate their lease early. The lease ends 09/30/2024.  They gave me a notice 05/15/2024 & are wanting to move out 07/31/2024. This is more than a 60 day notice. The lease states "Tenant shall not have the right to terminate this lease early". My question is can I legally keep their security deposit? I planned to tell them that "I will waive the final 2 months of the lease but unfortunately I will have to keep your security deposit". Is this legal in the state of Georgia? We plan to move into this unit, so finding a new tenant is off the table.
