For instance, if you had a two year contract, is there any way you could be made to live in that property for the two full years? My friend has had a landlord state this, and I am pretty sure that’s not how it works. As far as I am aware the contract should tell you how many months notice you have to give, and that’s about it. This landlord was basically saying if they move out before the contract is up, they would have to pay for the rest of the time, when they wouldn’t even be living at the property. Sounds fishy to me.. any experience in this?
