If you want to vacate a house when your tenancy has not expired, are you entitled to a refund of the unused amount (that is, the amount paid for the remaining months)? 1 Like 1 Share |

JuanDeDios: If in Nigeria, technically NO, but you might get a refund under certain conditions: - If another tenant come let the apartment, you get your refund less the month(s) the apartment is not in use. However, no Nigerian landlord will deep his hand in his treasury and refund you when you are the one terminating the tenancy agreement. However, please read what you signed in your contract.

If there is a mutual understanding between you and the landlord, you may get refund for the remaining months if you bring somebody to rent it or if the landlord get someone to rent the property. Otherwise if the property remains vacant till your rent runs out, forget it. If the landlord is difficult, you have every right to move out and insist that nobody rents it till your rent expires. 3 Likes |

JuanDeDios: If you signed a tenancy lease for e.g one year , even if you decide to leave before the end, you are legally bound to pay until your lease expires. So technically no you do not get a refund except your landlord wants to make an exception. |

It depends on the landlord and months you have remaining for your tenancy to expire. |
Re: Vacating A House Before Tenancy Expires, Do You Get A Refund? by WATCHOVER(m): 6:44am On Jun 25, 2016 |
depending on the situation. If the landlord issues the tenant quite notice before the expiration of the rent the Landlord MUST compensate the tenant. But if its the tenant vacating the building on its own, the landlord has the right to refund part or not. N.B. In this case op if you're the one vacating the premises on your Will no just put hope on the remaining the money o because na you 'breach contract'. |

meImyself: That will be illegal, he will have to agree with you a settlement or you can sue him for breach of contract. Or he can transfer your tenancy to the new owner. Who will be your new landlord. |

If you are vacating on ur own volition. NO u dont get a refund. If its the Landlord asking u to quit b4 the expiration of ur tenancy, then YES u are entitled to a refund. |
