Lease agreement issue
inhales SO, long story short, I was homeless and rented a room from a girl I knew from around the area. I was in a bind so I was taking what I can get.
I live in Michigan, paying $600 for a room with no closet. The landlord and her husband are constantly screaming at each other and fighting. Neither of them work and live off of us paying rent each month. I got tired of not making ends meet here so I applied for a job in Washington state that’s offering me $11.50 more an hour to do the same job I’m doing here.
Yesterday I put in my 30 day notice in writing, and I will be paying rent through my 30 day notice which ends on 12/12/24. I have to start my new job December 2nd so I won’t physically be there for some of the 30 days, but will be paying through the 30 days. I prorated the rent for the 12 days of December and she lost her shit, telling me she’s going to sue me. She said because I won’t be physically living in the home for the full duration of my 30 day notice, that I owe her all of December’s rent. I already paid Novembers rent on 11/1/24.
I told her the lease reads as I owe my last 30 days of rent on move out day.
Also, I’m on a month to month lease.
For the last 2 days it’s been daily, non-stop texts, calls and emails threatening to sue me over and over again with no resolution.
What do you guys think?
