If you are living in the apartment then you should continue to pay the rent. Make certain to pay by by check so that you have proof of payment.

Can you get in trouble for being on a lease and have someone else take your place but still paying rent?
If the lease prohibits subletting you will be violating the terms of the lease. In this case the landlord would have to agree to create an entirely new lease listing the other person instead of you for it to be legal. As it is a new lease the rent could be noticeably higher for the new person than it was for you. If the lease does not prohibit subletting you can do this by simply renting your part to the other person, have them pay you and you continue paying the landlord. However this is very rare.
If you signed a lease and did not pay a security deposit is it valid?
Signing the lease and paying the security deposit are two separate issues. Furthermore, if you don't pay the security deposit then you could be in violation of the lease terms and be evicted if the landlord chooses. Normally you pay the security deposit before you and your landlord sign the lease, or work out a payment plan that you and your landlord agree to. If your landlord agreed to allow you to skip the security deposit then that part of the lease is waived and the rest of the lease stands.
What can happen if you stop paying your lease payment on your apartment halfway through the lease and you leave the apartment?
The landlord has an obligation to try to rent it. If she cannot, she can sue you for each month, through the end of the lease.
Which is worse an eviction or broken lease?
An eviction definitely! With a broken lease, you are still paying your landlord the rent that you own him and will probably be paying a fee to break the lease. With an evicition, the renter probably has stopped paying the rent or has damaged the property or has been doing something illegal like growing marijuana on the property.
What do you do when you have a lease and paying your rent but the landlord doesn't pay the mortgage?
Nothing. Just keep paying your rent. The landlord's relationship with his bank has nothing to do with you. And, if he does get foreclosed, federal law gives you lots of time before the bank can move you out.
If your lease expired and you've been renting mnth to mnth without a lease and landlord is accepting your rent why and where does it say that you have to give a 30-day notice if you don't have a lease?
I don't know what state you live in but in NJ you dont have to have a written lease as long as you are paying rent and the landlord is accepting it you are sort of renewing your lease every month. Most libraries have a copy of the Landlord/Tenant Rights or you could probrably find it online.
If you are buying a new house but still have time left on your apartment lease can you get out of the lease without paying penalties?
Probably not. However, I suggest to you that you negotiate an early termination of your lease with the landlord. Inform him/her that you have purchased a home and that you need to vacate the property before the original term of the lease. offer the landlord to cooperate while the landlord shows the apartment to prospective tenants. Tell the landlord that you are prepared to keep paying rent and vacate the unit only when a new tenant has been secured. Be pro-active, help the landlord. Put up a flyer in your building and/or around your neighborhood regarding your unit for rent. It is most likely that your landlord will be Ok with ending your lease without penalty if he/she has found a replacement tenant, and if you have shown your willlingness to cooperate. Landlords are people too...You'll be amazed how easy it is to get out of your lease without significant cost to you if you appraoch the landlord with the right attitude. Good luck.
Can a landlord require you to sign a lease that states tenant has received something he has not?
No you never ever sign anything that says you have received something when you have not.
How many days notice does a tenant give a landlord to terminate lease in Texas?
If you are on a fixed term lease, there is probably a provision in the written lease agreement that sets out the procedure for terminating the lease. If you're on a periodic (month to month) tenancy, you must give one month's advance notice. Getting out of a fixed term lease early could be difficult unless you can get your landlord to agree to it, or unless you can find a suitable new tenant to take over the balance of the lease. Otherwise you could be liable for paying rent for the remainder of the lease term, and possibly also for paying the landlord's expenses to ready the premises for reletting to a new tenant.
Who do renters make a lease agreement with?
Renters make a lease agreement with a landlord.
What happens if a landlord loses a rental agreement and the tenants have broken the lease by not paying?
If the rent is not paid, you need to serve a notice to quit. It doesn't really matter whether you have the lease.
If the landlord breaks the lease can you sue for back rent?
Yes the landlord can be sued for breaking the lease.
