There are actually more reasons including getting engaged and I cant have anymore people in the studio with me also my fiance is not able to move to the state I am in right now where I came for a job. My landlord is quite the oddball to say the least. When my mom and I went apartment hunting we were very rushed to get an apartment since I was taking this job out of state and needed a place fast. He was rude to my mom and myself, kept telling me I was a big boy and can do things on my own. He also harrased my place of employment after calling them many many times to check to see if I was actually employed there. The lady that hired me was out of town attending to her mother that was very ill. He also harrased and told the Dish Network worker to leave because he didn't have his business card but was decked out in DN attire and driving a DN van. He also harrased my aunt when she came to help me move in. I am sure he has done the same to other tenants because I have heard altercations in the hallway. I know a lease is a legal binding contract but I cannot afford to have an apartment in two places and I am moving out of state. What can I do?
