Landlord Tenant Legal Questions and Answers

Landlord Tenant

Rental Lease Agreement

Texas

Asked on Sep 11, 2024

Can a landlord change the terms of a rental lease agreement without the tenant's consent?

I recently signed a rental lease agreement for an apartment, which clearly outlined the terms and conditions of the tenancy. However, my landlord has informed me that they intend to make changes to the lease agreement, specifically regarding an increase in rent and modifications to the maintenance responsibilities. I am concerned about the legality of these changes and whether a landlord can unilaterally alter the terms of a rental lease agreement without obtaining the tenant's consent.

Lorraine C.

Answered Oct 18, 2024

As with most legal questions, the answer is "it depends." Without reviewing the original lease, I can't know if there is a reservation of rights for the landlord to increase rent or change maintenance responsibilities without amending the lease or obtaining additional consent. If you would like me to review the lease for you to provide a more solid answer, please feel free to contact me. Lorraine Coats, Esq.

Lease Agreement

Washington

Asked on Dec 2, 2024

Can a landlord terminate a lease agreement early without any valid reason?

I recently signed a lease agreement for a residential property, and it has only been a few months since I moved in. However, my landlord has recently informed me that they want to terminate the lease agreement early, without providing any valid reason for doing so. I have been a responsible tenant and have not violated any terms of the lease, so I am confused as to whether the landlord has the legal right to terminate the agreement without cause.

Merry K.

Answered Dec 3, 2024

No, the landlord cannot legally do so. A lease is a form of contract, and if one party tries to break a contract, it's normally considered a breach of contract. However, in addition, Washington has a very detailed (and sometimes difficult to follow) Residential Landlord Tenant Law that has been in effect, and amended numerous times, since 1973: https://apps.leg.wa.gov/rcw/default.aspx?cite=59.18 Also, many cities provide some additional protections to tenants - Seattle chief among them. I'd be happy to provide some assistance to you through Contracts Counsel, but no longer engage in litigation (however, litigation shouldn't be needed). Be aware that the landord can't do anything at all, for any reason, unless everything the landlord provides to you is in writing and properly served to you (eg, a notice to vacate or eviction can't be delivered merely by email or text). Best wishes, and good luck, Merry A. Kogut, Attorney at Law

Landlord Tenant

Residential Lease Agreement

North Carolina

Asked on Sep 10, 2023

What is a residential lease agreement?

I am looking to move to a new apartment and need to know the details of a residential lease agreement. I am familiar with the basics of a lease, but want to make sure I understand all the details of what I am signing. I am also interested in understanding what my rights and responsibilities are as a tenant.

N'kia N.

Answered Sep 24, 2023

A residential lease agreement is sometimes referred to as a "residential rental agreement," a "rental agreement," a "residential lease," a "lease agreement," or simply a "lease." It is a legal contract between a landlord and a tenant that details the terms and conditions of the tenancy, including the rights and responsibilities of each party. Every U.S. state has laws regarding the rights and responsibilities of residential landlords and tenants. For example, North Carolina's "Residential Rental Agreement Act" can be found in Chapter 42 of the North Carolina General Statutes. Generally, a residential tenant has the right to possess (or occupy) the property, the right to quiet (or peaceful) enjoyment of the property, and the right to the property being fit and habitable. In exchange, a residential tenant is responsible for paying a rental fee (in full and when due), not damaging the property, and keeping the property safe and sanitary. However, a residential lease agreement may grant additional rights to and/or impose additional responsibilities upon a tenant, so long as neither conflict with the law. For example, a landlord might provide a tenant access to a business center, a clubhouse, or an exercise room but might charge a fee for said access. For another example, one landlord may prohibit pets, one may allow pets but charge no fee, and another may allow pets and charge a fee. Last, not everything stated in a residential lease agreement is necessarily enforceable. Having an attorney review a lease before signing it can help clarify the rights and responsibilities of the landlord and the tenant, which can also help avoid confusion and conflict later on.

Landlord Tenant

Lease Termination Letter

Maryland

Asked on Jun 24, 2025

Can I terminate my lease early due to unforeseen circumstances?

I recently signed a one-year lease for an apartment, but due to unexpected job loss and financial difficulties, I am struggling to keep up with the monthly rent. I have tried negotiating with my landlord to terminate the lease early, but they are insisting that I am legally bound to fulfill the entire lease term. I want to know if I have any legal options to terminate the lease early based on these unforeseen circumstances.

Sara S.

Answered Jul 1, 2025

Hi, The answer to this lies in the lease and what you and the landlord agree to. Maryland law does not generally provide the right to break a lease for good cause. If a tenant wants to break a lease that does not have a cancellation section, Maryland law permits early termination of a lease only under certain circumstances. These include certain situations where continuation of the tenancy becomes a severe hardship for the tenant, medical situations, and certain situations where the tenant has been called to military duty. See Md. Code, Real Property § 8-212.1 . Discussing this with a qualified Maryland attorney will give you much more clarity.

Landlord Tenant

Rental Agreement

Florida

Asked on Oct 5, 2023

What happens if a rental agreement expires?

I recently signed a rental agreement for an apartment. The agreement was for a one year lease and it is now coming close to the expiration date. I am wondering what are my rights and obligations if the agreement expires. I am concerned that the landlord may try to keep me in the apartment longer than I am legally obligated to stay.

Diane D.

Answered Oct 17, 2023

When your lease expires, then it is over unless you sign a new lease or fail to give your landlord a 30-day notice. Send your notice and move out when before the lease expires, which could be the last day of the lease.
