How to Get Out of Your Lease with Zero Loss

Being stuck in an apartment lease can be a tough situation. You want to move-out, but you still have a few months left on your lease contract. It may be that you & your spouse have split up, you bought a new home that you can’t wait to move-in to, your job was relocated to another city, you want to save money by moving somewhere cheaper, or you just hate the place and wanna get out of it as soon as possible.

You have a few options when you’re in that situation. You can just move-out and keep paying the rent for an empty apartment, but that is not something you’d be excited to do. Or, you can break your lease & leave now, but then you’ll have to deal with all the headache of hurting your credit, and paying a penalty for breaking your lease, which can be up to $5000 in some cases, along with other hidden fees that your apartment complex may make you pay.

Or you can go with the third option, which is the least expensive & heart-aching. You can simply find someone to “take over your lease.” What that means is you’d simply look out for & find someone who would be interested in an apartment just like yours: similar location, similar monthly rent, similar square footage, similar everything, for the same amount of time that is left on your lease. After you find that person, you would then transfer your lease onto him, usually by filling some paper work through your leasing office or management, and from then on they would be responsible for the apartment, and you’d no longer be stuck in it! This would be a win-win situation for both parties. You will have the freedom of getting out of your lease early and no longer being stuck in it, for no fees, penalties or any consequences on your credit. And similarly, the person who will take over your lease will have the benefit of: a) being able to rent your apartment short-term without having to commit to a yearly lease, and b) not having to pay a security deposit since that has already been taken care of, and c) taking advantage of any discounts or special offers that you locked into when you first got your apartment. So it’s really one hell of a deal for both of you.

There are a few ways to find someone to take over your lease. You can spread the word out at your job or in your social circle and find someone through them. Or, You can put ads in print newspapers and classifieds and these can be very affordable or a bit expensive depending on where you advertise. You can also put a few ads on online classifieds such as Oodle & Craigslist or sites like Facebook & Twitter.

However, if you want the least-headache & least time-consuming way to go about it, and save yourself all the time, effort & energy that will go into finding someone to take over your lease, without having to wait forever, & instead have someone else do all the work for you & free you from your lease almost immediately, then all you have to do is find a professional organization that will tackle the task on your behalf.
