<prompt> Human: So I have done everything to be ready for the closing date to be set on a house I intend to buy. Problem is one contingency left; i am liable for my lease until they rent out to the next person, if they rent it out, and the bank doesnt like that. I thought all leases had an option to terminate for x or x dollars, so I didnt check the exact wording, which I admit is my fault. So now, these are my options, as I am aware, which I hope someone can point out other options for me:1. Negotiate a fee to terminate and be free completely. I talked to a higher up briefly, and they arent willing, since they would have to allow it for everyone.2. Buy out my lease. It ends July of 2018, and while I have some money saved up, I dont have that much. I would receive back the difference if they rented out my apartment3. Have someone signed on to take over. This appears to be my only option, which is completely at the mercy of the market. I intend to do my own advertising where I can to speed things up, but I have deadlines that I will either need extensions for, or to walk away from this house which I am so close to buying. I realize if I had read the lease, I could have avoided all of this by waiting to buy closer to the end of it, but if there are options Im not seeing, please tell me. Im a bit stressed out, and not thinking from a level headed place right now. EDIT: Not only is EMD in, but the inspections have been done, as well as the appraisal. This is the last thing I need to clear before setting the closing date. This is literally the only things standing in my way, and I have spent over 1500 to get to this point. Walking away isnt an option as far as Im concerned  <response>: You keep repeating your edit to everyone in this thread that tells you to walk away.Whats your current rent? It probably isnt unreasonable to say your rent is at least 500. So, lets break this down.1. You cant afford 4500 to buy out the remainder of the lease, which means youre mostly tapped out on cash.2. The bank doesnt believe you can afford the house and the rental.3. Youre absolutely married to the 1500 youve already spent, which only covers optimistically 3 months rentThe higher your rent is, the less applicable point 1 is, and the more applicable point 3 is. No matter what, though, point 2 is always applicable. You admit that youve backed yourself into a corner. You only have two options: get someone to take over your lease immediately, or give up the house. It isnt fair to the seller that you didnt read your lease agreement, and now they have to wait. Youre going to chase this house with more money because youre too proud to just let it go.Youve already presented three options, two of which you admit yourself arent even options. You arent here for advice, youre here because you want people to vindicate your decision to keep chasing this house.
