So I decided to glance at my apt contract today and see if there are any weird clauses I should be aware of or anything, no spinning in your chair on Tuesdays or something… And I found one!
“Death of Sole Resident. If you are the sole resident, upon your death you may terminate the Lease Contract without penalty with at least 30 days written notice. You will be liable for payment of rent until the latter of: (1) the termination date, or (2) until all possessions in the apartment are removed. You will be liable for all rent, charges, and damages to the apartment until it is vacated, and any removal and storage costs.”
I will be sure to provide 30 days written notice of my death and remove all possessions after.
