Can you break your lease if your neighborhood is unsafe?

Answer 1

Yes you can if the threats from other tenants are legitimate (they've actually personally threatened you in any way) and the landlady or landlord is doing nothing about it because it's up to them to keep peace in the complex. If the resist you leaving this complex then tell them you will be speaking to your lawyer. Landlords prefer to keep things quiet (many complexes are owned by companies) and they really don't want any legal problems. Be sure you get your damage deposit back as well. Good luck Marcy

Answer 2

if memory serves me right you can but only if you can prove that there is a direct threat to your or your family but i advise to see a solicitor

Answer 3

Only if it's written in your contract. Suggest you call the landlord and talk to him about moving out. See if he'll let you go.

Answer 4

it depends on who your landlord is and how nice or mean they are
