Need help on terminate housing contract
After 6 months I have resigned from a senior position and I can not stay any longer in Qatar. The problem I have is the housing contract, it says that I have to rent for 12 months until I can terminate with 3 months given notice. Is there a Qatar Law that prevents this contracts since myself and family will not even stay in the country? I can not pay the rent for 7 more months!
any recommendations?
Thanks for advice...
Thanks for all advice, I hope the owner of the house will have some understanding...
If you are staying in the country, there is a problem.
If you are leaving Qatar, it's fine. Just take all the money from your bank account, get on a plane, and leave.
There's nothing the real estate agent can do.
Just be sure that you don't intend to return to Qatar!
Speak to landlord first, help him /her to find a replacement..... tat sounds better..
I think if you leave Qatar and your RP is cancelled then there is something in the law which makes makes yout rental agreement no longer valid. This is what I have heard from our housing dept and from a couple of agents.
just eat another pie
is to try and find someone to take on the lease yourself.
Did you Google it first?
Talk to the landlord directly. If he/she can find a replacement tenant then there should be no problem cancelling your contract.
