Right. The military clause does not have to be written in your lease just to be valid.

Well, if the wife took the lease agreement during the husband’s deployment and now that he is back and she wants to join him, I don’t think she’ll be covered by the law. I guess she’ll have to pay the fees, in accordance to the termination clause in the lease agreement.

A landlord who violates the law for miliatry tenants will be penalized so they need to be careful and you need to know your rights too.

If you’re in the military and you are allowed to be off the lease granted that you pay some fines, you have to file a complaint against your landlord. RPA can help you out.

You signed the lease so you have to be responsible for it. You cannot just cancel it and use your husband’s military priviledges.

The military sure gets a lot of perks but you cannot abuse them. If your husband is not in the lease agreement then you cannot expect your landlord to honor your request for early lease termination.

You would have to check your state’s tenant-landlord law. I have a lease agreement and I read it from top to bottom. It was not clearly stated as to the military clause but my tenant laws have been very specific about it. And as you know, state tenant laws will always supersede your lease agreement.

Yes, so if you move out and break the lease agreement, then you would need to pay the necessary termination fees. For better guidance, you can consult with a lawyer or file a complaint with the RPA.

Well, the law says that the rental property has to be the primary residence of the military man so you may not be covered by it.
