My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: Texas
I recently moved into a 2bed/1 bath apartment..about 5 nights ago. I put my deposit down almost a month prior, but the lease has not been signed yet.(my landlord did not have it written, we are signing it tomorrow) Im subleasing the place from the previous tenant. I was told when looking at the place, after i put my deposit down, and through several phone calls that I had the option of resigning it in August for another year. I discussed the possibility of resigning but that i was not sure what im going to do next year and that i wanted to actually live in the place a bit to see if i liked it. She said thats fine, and i said i would have my answer by may. Move in day came (April 1st) and i was informed the place was signed for August already in passing. I was shocked but not completely devastated..that is until i spent the first night there and fell in love with the place. I talked to her again confirming it was signed and that the 2 gentleman that signed the lease (they signed 1 week prior to me moving in) 3 friends were moving into the apartment below. One of the reasons i moved into the place was the option to resign and we agreed (via telephone convo) that I would give her my answer by may and she said that was perfectly fine. In the location I need to live to continue to go to school in Austin, it is very difficult to find a place to live, and i knew it was not going to be available for next year, i would o already had a new place sign in order to stay with in price range etc. Thats why it was so perfect that i didn't have to tell her if I were moving out or not. The lease says i have to notify the landlord at least 60 days before move out date. Of course i have not signed that yet so i dunno...
What can i do?!?! I started looking for new places but nothing matches up, its all out of my price range. I even have a roommate to sign with me.
Can the landlord break the newly signed tenants contract?
