Hey everyone,

Does anyone have experience in breaking a yearly rental agreement with your landlord? I am talking maybe 5 months early. If so, did you get most of, or all of your deposit back.

I know it's impossible to say how much a person will get back. Just wanted to know how most people came off. I am a little worried at losing all of my deposit as it is quite a lot of cash.

Thanks all.

I've broken a number of contracts over the years, but never after only 5 months. I've always offered to use up my deposit and get a month of free rent rather than pay the last month and get a refund. It's always worked for me, as most landlords HATE giving money back for any reason. If that's an option for you, you can try doing that.

If you help them find someone to take your place you will get most of your cash back.

Hope this helps.
