    Default How Soon Can You Move Out of a Fixed Term Rental

    I've just moved to USA and sublet a loft space in Brooklyn, NY for three month. An owner didn't tell that the other tenants make a lot of noise, because they work here. Most of them do not even live hear, such as a sculptor next door.

    Our agreement is pretty short:
    This is an agreement between "Owner Name" and "First Tenant Name" and "Second Tenant Name". Both Mr. "First Tenant Name" and Mr."Second Tenant Name" will be subleting loft space from Mr. "Owner Name" from December 2, 2011 throygh March 1, 2012. $2300 includes rent and utilities and internet.
    A security deposit of $2300 will be held until departure.


    How soon can we move out? We pay $2300/month, is that mean that we have month-to-month agreement and should give him the 30-days notice? If so can we move out at February 15 if we give the notice before January 15 or we have to pay until the end of February anyway?

    You indicate that you signed a sublease that lasts until the first of March, so it would appear that you can move out on the first of March. Well, you could move sooner, but you can expect to pay rent through the end of the lease term.
