Tenant moving out before lease is up

[Jennifer Jackson]

Hi All,

I have a tenant who is moving out about 2 months before her lease is up. She gave 60 days notice so I have plenty of time to find a new tenant. 

My Q: Is there any paperwork that needs to be filled out when a tenant terminates their lease early? For example, if I move out of my apartment early, I would have a ding on my credit score and be responsible for paying rent until the owner finds another tenant. How would you handle the situation? Thanks!
