I have a problem with the apartment I am renting.
I have been staying here for a couple of months now but I wanted to leave before the end of our contract because just a few weeks ago it flooded in our area, the flood was hip high. It took weeks for the flood to subside, he did not inform me this when I inquired for rent. I intend to consume my deposit and advance and then leave, but my tenant wants me to pay the rent. He insists that its in the contract that I cannot withdraw the deposit and advance. Also he was not able to give me my copy of the contract. I do not wish to withdraw it, but just make use of my remaining 3 months so that i could save for the apartment I am transferring to. I have read that the landowner cannot ask me to leave unless I am unable to pay rent for 3 months.
I would like to know what is my stand here?
Your advice would be very much appreciated!
Thank you!
