  1. Re: rental lease
    You conceivably can owe the rent for the remaining term of the lease. The landlord, though, must exercise reasonable diligence in re-renting the apartment and credit you for that rent. You also can be charged for the cost of advertising and other related expenses. You can also help the landlord find a new tenant to mitigate the amount you might owe.

    You might discuss this issue with the landlord and see if you can mutually agree on a plan to let you out of the lease.
