What happens if I need to break my lease?

Step 1

Most folks stay with Running Creek for long-term, but sometimes that dream job or perfect opportunity comes up. We understand! Just notify the office right away if you know you’ll need to break your lease. We’ll send over the 30-day Notice form via DocHub for your e-signature and the 30 days will begin on the 1st of the next calendar month.


Step 2

You are still responsible for rent and utilities until another resident is found to take over your lease period, so please make sure to make arrangements to continue paying rent, AEP, and Lancaster Municipal Utilities. We’ll work hard to find another resident, and if you know anyone we appreciate all referrals! The more we can work together, the faster the process goes.


Step 3

You may be responsible for a Break Lease Fee depending on your lease. Please budget accordingly and talk to our office if you have any questions. Call or text our central office number 740.277.1619 .
