Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Massachusetts
I'm serving active duty and my projected transfer is in November. It is currently March 28. The house my wife and I live in was recently sold and we need to move out by May 1. Pretty much all of the apartments we've found require a 1 year lease to be signed. If I have orders in hand by October/November can we be released from the lease?

talk to you local JAG office. The service-member's civil relef act allows for the cancellation of leases with appropriate military orders. Your JAG Office can give you the details of how to make this effective.
