This depends on how serious or repetitious the violation is. A landlord can give you some time to correct the violation or can ask you to leave. If the landlord chooses the latter, he can choose not to renew the lease, terminate it with some notice, such as 30 days or less, or terminate it immediately by means of an eviction (an eviction is actually a court proceeding, not just a request for you to move. If you move per the request without the matter heading to court you will not have an eviction record, which could jeopardize your housing choice voucher if you have one and your ability to get into another home).
No - that's not a breach by the landlord.
No. That is not a breach by the landlord.
Landlords give all sorts of crazy reasons for wanting to break leases. This is one of the strangest I have ever heard. A lease is a legal contract. It may contain a clause describing how the landlord can break it. The landlord may have sold the building for a whole lot of money. If he can get you out without having to pay you to break the lease then he gets to keep more money. His short sale does not involve you. He has a different motive. His short sale does not give him the right to break a lease. Your problem is your lease with him.
If you break the lease, your landlord can charge you the amount of rent for the apartment or unit during the time it is left unoccupied up until the dwelling has been rented out or until your lease expires, whichever comes first.
Only a serious breach by the landlord - like substantial, ongoing code violations - would allow a tenant to break the lease.
Yes, I believe there is a provision in the law for the sale of the premises.
As a tenant, if the landlord wishes to break their own lease, you have the right to seek damages just as they would if you had broken your lease. The usual outcome for a landlord to break a lease is that the landlord forfeits any right to retain the security deposit.
Yes, you can break your lease if your landlord refuses to fix things, as long as this is specified in the lease. Your landlord is liable for keeping the home in working order and safe. Contact an attorney to help you with the lease.
a landlord may not EVER break/violate a lease. [unless the tenant wishes it so]
Check your laws.
If that is a condition of your lease (in writing) then it's possible. Otherwise, you may have to take other recourse to convince the landlord that the problems needs to be repaired.
The answer is probably not, but you can have the landlord arrested, or at least file charges against the person. To break the lease, you will probably have to sue in court.

If you paid your rent late, he didn't break the lease - you did. He can now move to terminate the lease.

If you have this clause in writing in your lease agreement and the landlord doesn't follow through then you have cause to break the agreement.
