Breaking a lease in Texas due to Job relocation

People still underestimate the consequences of a leasing contract of agreement. When you sign an agreement that you will be paying a certain amount every month for next 12 months, then you legally obligate yourself before law.

If you think you can simply break this legal promise, brace yourself for your landlord going 'full-speed' after you in a small claims court demanding that you pay the rest of the months on your agreement.

There's not a single leasing office in Texas that will acknowledge a reason for your early lease break, such as breaking a lease due to a new job. 

A tenant may also attempt to find a replacement tenant to rent the property. The landlord is not under any obligation to rent to this prospective tenant; however, if the landlord declines to rent to a qualified tenant and later sues the tenant, a court may rule for the tenant because the landlord refused to mitigate the damages.
