Best Answer

The best way I know of is to be honest with the landlord. It's really in their best interests not to have a disgruntled tenant in possession of their property, so they have a lot of motivation.

Simply tell them the truth, and ask what they can offer to ease this situation. 99% will comply, as it's murder to prosecute improper termination of lease out of state. And there's no reason I can think of not to imply your new job may be out of state or out of the country, btw. Don't lie -- just leave that question open..

Can you break a lease in Utah if you are moving out of state for work?

You can break a lease to move for work--but the landlord has the rights noted in the lease. Providing 30 days notice and talking to him about the reasons for your move may reduce the money they expect for you to pay to get out of the lease. If you have a letter of employment from the new job may help. A job in the military is usually the only work-related reason for getting out of a lease early.

Can you break your current apartment lease if you get fired from your job?

Not without the penalty stated in the contract. The lease can't be broken because of personal problems. It is possible that a cool landlord would just let you out of the lease if you talk to him about it, but they don't have to bend over backward if they don't want to.

Can you leave your home at 16 if you have a good job and a friend who is 17 turnin 18 with a good job and move in with them. and put it on a lease together.?

If you are under the age of majority (18) you may be able to sign a lease, but you cannot be legally bound by the terms of that lease because you are a minor. A good landlord would know better than to put a minor's name on a lease.This does not sound like a good idea to me, though. How would your family feel about this?

This depends on how your lease is written. You may (or may not) lose your deposit but if the landlord finds another renter you won't be responsible for the remaining months of rent you would have to pay until such renter is found.
