You might consider engaging an attorney to draft a "Mutual Agreement to Terminate Lease" or something to that effect that is valid in your state.A simple 1-2 page agreement outlining that 1) she has surrendered or abandoned the premises, 2) you have her permission to dispose of her personal property, 3) and you have her permission to liquidate her deposit for past due rent, can save you tons of potential legal headaches down the road, and would likely be far less expensive and time consuming than an eviction.Forget trying to collect on the remaining months of the existing lease.

I am new to actively engaging the site.

Engage often and contribute wherever you can...and I'm sure you'll find this is an extremely helpful resource in your RE journey!

(Zach got engaged recently everyone!)

It's all about supply and demand and how much the seller values what the buyer's agent brings to the table.In the event where the company found you, engaged with you, then at the last minute you wanted to being in your own agent it's doubtful they would value what the agent is bringing to the table very much as they have for the most part already procured the sale.

If you can master this area, you may have little (legal) competition.The above is provided for discussion only, and, to the extent it could be construed as advice or counsel, should not be relied upon without first engaging competent legal counsel for your particular jurisdiction and legal issues.
