Hi,

I have a housing lease running till aug31, 2008. My work visa ended abruptly and hence i have to leave the country. I informed the management company about this and wanting to end my lease and this is what they say

1. I am responsible for the house till my lease term expires
2. I am not allowed to sublease
3. If i find somebody to take my place, the new person has to sign a new lease and that would be at current market rate (I currently pay 100$ less than the market).

so here are my questions

1. I can find somebody to take my place at the rent i pay, since it is 100$ less than the market rate. I think it is unfair that I have to find somebody to the same market rate! Does anybody know i should handle this problem?
thanks a ton

Can you negotiate with the management company to lease at the price you're paying right now? I would try that first, and kindly stress to them that this is a tough, time-sensitive situation for you. If that doesn't work, you can suggest splitting the difference: ask the management company to lease at $50 extra per month, instead of $100 extra per month. That might work for everyone.
