We have a written letter from our daugters pulmonologist that requests termination of the lease immediately due to medical reasons. Someone on our floor smokes in their apartment which makes the hallways smell and even sometimes our apartment. This has made a huge impact on her health. With a doctors letter we should be able to get out of our rental agreement with no responsiblitly after we move out. Or atleast that is what I thought. The management will not let us leave until the apartment is rented to another tenate. Do you have any advise on what we should do?

The lease specifies a 60-day notice to move out is required (whether or not it's the end of the lease). As to early termination, it specifies that an additional month must be paid in addition to the 60-day notice, as well as a forfeiting the security deposit. Since I'm not sure when I will need to move out at this point, is there any way to get out of the yearlong lease and somehow move to a month-to-month? Or...if I give 60 days notice now...is it possible to extend the notice when I know more? I'm fine with losing the security deposit and paying an extra month...what I'm worried about is finding out that I'll have to be at a new job in one month...and then end up paying two months past the time when I live here. And..if I do move out and surrender the keys prior to the notice date, how can I make sure the apartment isn't double-rented after that?
