Undo And Redo In Legal Tennessee Termination Of Lease Forms For Free

A: A lease termination letter should include the tenant's name and contact information, the landlord's name and address, the date the lease will be terminated, and a reason for why the lease is being terminated.

Technically, Tennessee state law allows tenants to break their lease agreement for any reason. However, not following the penalty terms in the agreement can increase their risk of getting sued.

I wish to inform you that I will be terminating my lease on [date you plan to terminate]. This letter provides the necessary notice of [required notice] as outlined in the lease. I will move out my belongings and return my keys to [address of property management office] by [date you plan to terminate].

The reason for the termination is [explain why you are leaving]. I really enjoyed staying here and will clean the house/apartment before moving out. I will hand over my keys to you on [date] if you are available on this date. I request you to send my security deposit to [mention your new address/account number].

You can help the situation a lot by providing as much notice as possible and writing a sincere letter to your landlord explaining why you need to leave early. Ideally you can offer your landlord a qualified replacement tenant, someone with good credit and excellent references, to sign a new lease with your landlord.

A lease termination clause usually allows a tenant to break a lease early in exchange for a penalty fee. The penalty fee is oftentimes the equivalent to one month's rent or two month's rent. The landlord may also require that tenants exercising this clause provide them with sufficient notice.
