    When u break a lease u generally pay a lease break fee, advertising costs and rent until the house is tenanted again, or your lease runs out.
    it costs landlords about $150 to have a contract drawn up each time the house goes under application, hence the lease break fee.
    it IS doable, its just a matter of if u want to take the risk of paying double rent for a while.
    Good luck hun

    Ugh no not wanting to pay double rent! The other stuff I'd pay but double rent is almost my whole weekly wage so definitely not doable... especially if it could go on for months.
