My lease ends on 1st October. I want to move out at the end of July due to leaving the country for a new job. Can I tell my landlord I want to move out early? Also can I tell him to use my deposit for july's rent? My rent is £400 per month so I'm trying to weigh up if he'd actually take me to court for £800 (August and September rent)... Unfortunately the new job only covers moving fees. It's not a private landlord - owned by a company.
