Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Indiana

Lease

I signed a four year lease 4/12/04 with $1000.00 deposit--rent is 675/mo. Reason for incr. dep. and ext lease: 2 cats. I have found a home to buy, my offer has been accepted. Landlady says cannot let me out of lease because she has two other empty houses and cannot afford to let me out right now. I am devastated. What are my options?
