Question:
I am being interviewed for various jobs that will relocate me to another state. I should be moving sometime in November. I informed the property mgt company guy on 11 October. I would be moving out on 30 November. He stated I have to move out by 31 October instead. Is this legal?

Whether a given real estate action is legal or not is never easy to answer. You may live in a state that may allow certain stipulations to lease agreements that specify requirements for vacating the premises once notice is given. You'll have to read the fine print in your lease to fully appreciate what you agreed to. Your best bet is to speak with an attorney locally who is well versed in local and state laws that govern such situations.
