Not Here! You Leave with out paying that last months rent LL take it you court! The it Blackballs you from renting again. So unless Mom wants her DD to live with her till DD Dies she best Not take a chance. I know 3 people that are living in Homeless Shelters cause they pulled this stunt!
You don't comprehend well.
It is a very common practice between a tenant and LL to agree to use the security deposit as the last month's rent. I didn't say don't pay your last month nor to just assume it.
When I rented my last month was always my deposit and my LL were always ok with it.
I gave proper notice and they knew the condition of their property.
The three people you know must have not okay it with their LL and/or left the apartment damaged.
Yes security deposit should not be used as rent. Specifically as last month. However, it is a common practice.
I file for eviction on day 10, which is as soon as I can file. It takes no more than a week after that to get a tenant out. I will not tolerate a tenant that thinks they can live out their deposit. You pay your last month's rent or you end up with an eviction on your permanent record.
I don't know any landlords that sit by and watch a tenant not pay their last month's rent. So, if it is common practice where starwind lives, it is not a common practice nationwide. If you don't live in the same neighborhood and have the same landlord as Starwind, I suggest that you don't try it.
Note: OP said nothing about hoping her daughter could live out her last month without paying any rent. I was not jumping on OP.

Another one that can't read. Where did I say don't pay your last month rent?
Have you considered or investigated the impact of the possible bad credit consequences upon your daughter's future ability to rent again? The 6 months rent cost might pale in comparison to being put on a blacklist.
breaking your lease has zero effect on your credit as long as you don't screw over your landlord.
The OP needs to read the lease..if the lease does not mention an early termination clause, then state law kicks in. In some states, i believe a tenant can be held responsible for the balance of the lease if the lease doesn't mention early termination.
It will depend on what the lease contract says that your daughter signed. Typically you will pay a "re-letting fee" and any number of days the apartment remains vacant.
Daughter, senior in college is suffering from depression, and is dropping out, moving home, and attempt to recover. Doing so, she will break a yearly lease, 6 months early. She has lived in building 30 months, as has been a good renter. Depression is diagnosed by MHCP, and she is taking prescribed medication.
Question, can she break lease due to health concerns, or are we on the hook.
Does she have a health care professional's medical order that she must, for her mental health, move back home?
