Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in California
How Obligated am I to the lease I signed
I signed a faxed copy of a 3 month residential lease and faxed it back to the landlord for a house due to be completed the 28th August. Due to telephone and DSL not being available until 3 weeks after move in and no commitment of keys being available to move in we want to terminate the lease in favor of another house.
What are my obligations?

Re: How Obligated am I to the lease I signed
You are obligated by the terms of the lease. You may have the right to terminate if they cannot give you possession on the date promised.
