EARLY MOVE-OUTTenant will be liable for a reletting charge of $2363 (85% of the monthly rent) if Tenant: (A) fail to move in, or fail to give written move-out notice; (B) move out without paying rent in full for the entire Lease term or renewal period; (C) move out at Landlord’s demand because of Tenant’s default; or (D) are judicially evicted.

But here is why C and D are affected less.

They consider it fraud and will take action against those who dare to rattle their cage.That being said, IF they approve the tenant and rent you are asking, and the total rent falls within their guidelines and tenant income qualifications, disclosed on the lease you are good to go.BTW, in year #2 of the lease, you can ask for a rent increase, and don't be shy about a raise--at that point, all they can say is "no".

These "hipsters" are young college grads who will live in areas that are (A) relatively inexpensive, (B) low or trending down in crime, (C) close to attractive civic amenities, and (D) are close enough to jobs.
