Yes, anyone that goes against the agreement in a written contract (both signatures must be present) is violating that contract. I'd seek legal counsel. Second opinion: I'd also seek legal counsel. BUT, does your lease say anything like, "If any section of this lease is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, all other valid sections of this lease shall remain in force."? It's a very common kind of phrase in contracting. Also, many leases have language which says that failure of Lessor to perform any action required under the Lease shall not nullify the Lease or the Lessee's requirements under it. In other words, there are ways that elements of a contract may be voided without voiding the entire contract. Be careful before saying, "You didn't do this, so I'm outta' here!" ;)

This matter can be quite tricky,depending on whether the lease was a domestic residential or a commercial lease. They both need to be looked in detail by a lawyer,as the landlord may have hidden clauses engrained therein the lease and which may mean the same thing. It is seldom that landlords would leave out a crucial point in the lease. [Syed Amir]

Of course not. A lease is a legal contract that is enforceable in court. Moving out doesn't terminate the lease. When you sign a lease you are responsible for the full duration of the lease. You may need to sue your co-tenant. You should consult with an attorney or with a landlord-tenant agency in your town.

Review your copy of the lease for any language that may void the lease if the property is sold. If there is no provisions to that effect then the new owner should take the property subject to your lease. You may need to speak with an attorney to determine what your rights are.
How do you write a 30 day notice to break a lease?
Release from Your Lease If you have to move before the end of your lease term, you and your landlord must agree to release you from your lease. If you end your lease properly, in accordance with the provisions of your lease, the landlord will remove your name from the lease or will void your lease and would enter into a new lease agreement with the new tenant. This will end your liability for future rent or damages. The landlord will return your security deposit to you, and will collect a new security deposit from the new tenant. This is the safest and clearest arrangement for you.
Does property sale void lease?
Generally, the sale of a property does not automatically void an existing lease. The new owner typically inherits the lease and must honor its terms unless specific provisions allow for termination. However, the lease agreement itself may contain clauses that address what happens in the event of a sale, so it's essential to review the lease for any specific conditions. Tenants should be informed of the change in ownership and any implications for their lease.
Is a lease valid if you wrote on it if your landlord says you nullified it by writing on it?
The original lease (the master copy in the office) is binding. Any changes must be agreed to in writing by both parties before they are accepted as a legal modification to the lease. Doubtful that the lease is void just because the renter wrote something on it ... don't think that would hold up in a court of law.
