My Landlord Didn't Tell Us There Was Lead Paint, Can I Break The Lease?

Our landlady (we live in upstate NY) told us nothing with regards tro possible lead paint being in the home (19th century house). This non-disclosure on her part, along with the extreme heating bills we will be facing-also not disclosed by her- is making us want to move. Do we have standing to break the one year lease we signed?

    Probably. just pay a lawyer $50 to write up a notice of contract termination. as long it is on a corporate letterhead, most landlords won't even fight you on it.
