To break a lease due to a death in the family, you should first review your lease agreement for any specific clauses regarding termination. Typically, you'll need to notify your landlord in writing, providing documentation of the death, such as a death certificate. It's advisable to communicate openly with your landlord to discuss your situation and explore options like subletting or terminating the lease early. Familiarize yourself with local tenant laws, as some jurisdictions may have specific provisions for such circumstances.
