My tenant informed me in April that he would be moving out May 1, 2014. He is retiring and he also went thru divorce and he couldnt afford the 1450 a month, he asked for a reduction, we gave him a $400.00 reduction for one month, h had a 2 year lease,he was watiing for a job and wanted us to wait for two weeks until he found out , we waited and no job, we showed the house and we rented the house June 1, 2014. His lease would have been up July 1, 2014, so he moved out 2 months earlier and we give him a $400.00 rent deduction. Do we have to give him his $ 1200 security deposit and do we deduct the $400.00 rent devrease for that one month?
