Tenant Gives 30 Day Notice, Landlord Asks To Leave A Few Days Early, Will Pro-rate Rent, Tenant Accepts Offer, Then Retracts. What Is Landlord Obligation?

Landlord may be able to sue for your removal for those few days, but it wouldn't be considered an eviction. You fulfilled your contract obligation by giving the 30 days notice,but as i said, a suit may be brought upon you, because this was a word of mouth contract, and i can see where the landlord is coming from. This is an example: You give your 30 days. Landlord has your apartment occupied for the first of April, but first has to ask you if you can vacate two days early, so he can have it cleaned for the new tenants. You give approval, and in turn, the landlord informs the new tenants that occupancy on the 1st of April is confirmed. Everything is set, except you just found out your house wont even be ready on the first, as you thought it would be, so you inform the landlord, and now nobody is happy. The fault does lie with you though, and unfortunately, really not much you can do about it. I honestly don't believe this would be classified as an eviction. What i used above, is obviously just an example as to what might of been the chain of events. Hopefully everything will work out for everybody in the end.
