What is the appropriate way to terminate my lease since I can no longer afford it?
Full Question:
I have a yearly apartment contract that expires next June. I got a new job that requires me to commute 1.5 hours each morning. My wife also commutes about 1.25 hours one way. I tried speaking with the office, but they said they cannot let me break without paying the rest of the rent. I cannot stay in my apartment because I cannot afford the commute. The salary for my job is less than my previous salary. I've already overdrawn my bank account a number of times and only been able to pay rent because I borrowed money. How can I get out of my lease without spending a ton of money either on the rest of the rent nor on tons of court/lawyer fees?
