Moved out early; can i get a refund on rent?
I left a contract early and one of the terms to leave early was to find another tenant to take my place which i did. the tenant has now moved in. i already paid for the entire month but the tenant moved in in the middle of the month and paid all moving in monies to the LL. can i claim a refund on the days of the month i did not stay there?

The LL can not claim 2 rents for the same period.:A

So yes, if the other tenant has paid from the day they moved in, then you can claim a refund for the remainder days.Should've = Should HAVE (not 'of')
Would've = Would HAVE (not 'of')
No, I am not perfect, but yes I do judge people on their use of basic English language. If you didn't know the above, then learn it! (If English is your second language, then you are forgiven!)0 -
No. Where rent is paid in advance for a particular period it is deemed to be applicable for any part of that period so that if the tenancy comes to an end during the period no refund is due.MissAttitude wrote: »can i claim a refund on the days of the month i did not stay there?

Agreed, so long as a different arrangement was not specified in the surrender of the tenancy (and assuming the surrender was not verbal......)0
