Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Iowa
can i get out of a lease
I have moved out of state with a new job. I had to sign my lease 6 months before it was up. I signed the lease and now I have moved out of state. Is there any way to get out of this lease?? Can I stop paying power, water and rent??

It all depends on the terms of your lease but highly doubtful that you can get out of it - there may be a provision to find a sub-tenant

yes make a deal with the landlord.
You know what your liability is. Agree to pay the rent until he finds a new tenant.
email me if you have any questions.
