    Did my lease Expire?

    I don't know to be honest, but it wouldn't surprise me. Did you happen to deal mostly with a psychotic female? [emoji15]

    Did my lease Expire?

    LOL If you really want to give constructive advice next time- try to look at ONLY the facts presented to you and trust that the OP is trying to keep his query short but with as much context as needed. All I needed was a "yes, it's binding" or "no, it's not binding". I'm trying to wrap my head...

    Did my lease Expire?

    That is how I see it. Why then have contracts in the first place, going through all the effort of getting signatures, if we could just casually do it over email. Thanks for your input!

    Did my lease Expire?

    Christ, talk about selective reading! My post seems to have offended you deeply, but I want you to know I'M NOT THE BAD GUY HERE and despite what your line of questioning seems to suggest, I'm not trying to pull a fast one on the landlord here. You also seem to look right past the fact that 1...

    I also do not understand, you say that it's a big house and moving is a schlep, yet you ended up moving in anycase? It kind of contradicts your argument. I also do not see how he is a "...landlord

    Honestly, I was/am fine with the rent I was paying-just didn't want them to increase it when other properties were going for less. Not sure why that's hard to understand

    Do you say 'Thank you' to Siri?

    Nah, he didn't accomadate me. He knew that if I moved he ran the risk of losing the income and even if he did find a new tenant there is no chance they would pay the same rent. So, because I didn't follow up with him a third time, I should just give him R32000?

    Because it's not about saving 2k. Rental prices started dropping after I entered into this agreement so there wasn't much I could do about it - until he wanted to increase upon renewal. Plus, It's a big house with a lot of stuff and moving is a schlep

    Rental: Lease Cancellation Fees

    I thoroughly enjoyed reading this thread and seeing the arguments. Currently in a similar situation Due to unfortunate circumstances I've had to cancel my lease ONE month sooner than expected, so I've rented 23 out of the contracted 24 months. Initially wasn't sure how to cancel the lease but...
