我这780信用分的租客想去买房，但是他看中的房子估计要到10月底才能造好，问我能不能mtm，这对小年轻住了快一年了按时交房租。但是 这个地区到了11月-3，4月会很难租房。 所以不同意mtm. 他们说在考虑续租，但是总归很勉为其难的样子，发给他们renewal，他们认真读了，说没找到“提前终止合同有什么惩罚” ，请我帮他们指一下在合同的哪里。(我也不知道在哪里，需要去认真读一下。他们都没找到，估计我也找不到）
这样的情况，是不是请他们走的比较好？趁现在是招租客的好时间。
顺便也问一下，“提前终止合同有什么惩罚” 如果不能丝滑对接上下一任租客，他们的押金应该相应扣除吧。他们11 月走，我这房子是要做好空几月的准备了。
这里大地主多，我就班门弄斧了
early termination clause 大致有2种。一是把剩余租期的租金付清，最狠的按是100%，也有75%，50%。二是固定罚金，有一个月租金或者两个月租金的加上押金。我用的是第二种的：
Early Lease Termination. If at any time the tenants terminate Lease before the expiration of said lease, the tenants shall be responsible for any early termination fee equal to 2 months rent or the remaining balance of said lease term, whichever is less. The tenants also agrees that any and all portions of paid deposit will be forfeited.
Lease break fees should reflect the actual cost of re-renting a unit
According to California law, when a lease is broken, landlords can only charge the tenant an amount equal to the costs of an early termination (their “actual damages”).1 This can include three things:
The rent remaining on the lease (until the landlord is able to re-rent the property, since they are required to mitigate damages—more on that below) The costs associated with re-renting the property (typically advertising) Any difference in the monthly rent between the original tenant and the new tenant for the rest of the lease term (if the landlord had to lower the price to re-rent)early termination clause ，就是默认租客在have not a legal justification 的情况下，原则上需要上把剩余租期的租金付清，不付清就法庭见。 写上 early termination clause ，就看地主自己的宽容度了。
Landlord must make reasonable efforts to re-rent your unit—no matter what your reason for leaving—rather than charge you for the total remaining rent due under the lease.
本地租房市场从九月-来年三四月不好租，很难说地主能有win。说实在让他们付实际损失也是不可能，（假设他们真的买了房，十月底搬走，如果我到来年三四月才把房租出去， 让他们付五个月租金那是不可能的）。比较现实，有可能的是让他们付两个月的损失，如果在他们搬走后两个月还是找不到，就自认倒霉了。
