As many of you guys knwo we just went to contracton a house and hope to be closing in early june. Also that our landlord is a nutjob and is tryingto make our lives hell. We need to double check the lease but I believe we need to give 30 days notice before we leave, which we plan to do and not a day earleir. (he doesnt know we went to contract yet)

Were figuring on telling him may first we will be out on june 15th and wont pay any rent and use the deposit. Is this a common practice, also do youi think theres any real leagal recourse he could take. Mind you its an illegal mother daughter house and he doesnt live there so I dont know if its in his best intrests to involve the authorities.
