No, there is not, unless (for some odd reason) your lease would contain such an agreement. Your option is to contact your landlord to see what sort of financial penalty will be imposed for early termination. If the landlord won't offer one, then you owe the rents until the property is re-rented to the satisfaction of the landlord.

It may not be written in the lease but I would go talk to the manager or landlord and let them know, and if you have proof usually they will let you pay a cancellation fee and get out of it, thats what happened when my husband was transferred out of state and all we had to do was show proof and then pay one months rent for a cancellation of the lease, but that depends on the manager or landlord.

If there is such a clause, it's in your lease contract. No one here has access to that document. There most likely is mention of breaking the contract, but nothing about breaking it for a good reason. You're going to have to pay some amount of money to get out of the lease. You need to read your lease. Personally, I don't sign anything without knowing what's in it. Perhaps you should look into developing that habit before a contract bites you hard one of these days.

There aren't very many ways to break a lease - and this isn't one of them. Talk to your manager or HR department and see if they can come up with a solution. Maybe someone in your company is looking for a place to stay, and you could sublet to them? Assuming, of course, that your lease allows you to sublet - but if you talk to your landlord, I'm sure he could work something out for you. After all, he'll still get paid, and it's not as though the person you'd be subletting to wouldn't have a job.
