My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: Texas
I recently moved to a new city and needed a new place on short notice. I found a listing on Craigslist and signed an agreement with the tenant saying I would be responsible for the payments till the end of the year. Well recently I found out the apartment does not allow subletting at all. So i do not feel comforatble living in an illegal situation where i could be evicted.
I called the original tenat imediately after i was made aware of this and told him how i felt. He said ok, and he would call me later. He texted me about 4 hours later as a reply to my text since he had not called. He stated that we signed an agreement and I HAD to still pay even if i moved out.
Can I break our illegal agreement?
