Typically, the rental contract needs to be signed for at least one year. However, for young people who are just starting out in the workforce, they may need to move out before the end of their contract, for example, due to a job change. In this case, early termination of the rental contract may result in the issue of liquidated damages. According to the general terms of the lease contract, the tenant is required to pay liquidated damages to compensate the landlord for any losses that may be caused by the early termination.
For example, if a tenant needs to terminate the contract early, he or she usually needs to pay a penalty equivalent to one month's rent. However, compared to other individual landlords or agencies, Ziru offers tenants some options for reducing liquidated damages. Under these schemes, it is possible for tenants to pay a minimum or even zero penalty in the event of an early termination. This policy allows comfortable tenants to be more flexible in dealing with rental issues in the face of unexpected situations such as job changes.
First of all, let's understand the process of early termination of the contract normally. Because Ziru has its own APP, when signing the contract, it is also carried out through online electronic signing, so when you terminate the contract, you can directly follow the process in the APP. On the app's personal page, find the contract option and you'll see the cancel button. However, it should be noted that Ziru will remind you on the page that you need to apply for early termination 15 days in advance, and if it is less than 15 days, the part of the rent that is less than 15 days old will be deducted on the day of quitting.
If you want to benefit from the penalty reduction, you can choose to change the lease, which means that you can rent another apartment in your new place of residence** for a contract period of more than 90 days. After you sign the new **, you will terminate the contract of the old **, so that the conditions for changing the lease have been reached. In this way, the tenant only needs to pay a penalty of 50 yuan for early termination, which is half of the termination cost.
In addition, Ziru also gives the option of subletting, but if you are using a monthly lease or short-term lease model, it does not support subleasing. As for the method of subleasing, it is also very simple, there are corresponding options in the app background, you just need to follow the prompts, if you sublease successfully, the liquidated damages are also reduced by 50. In addition, there is a special circumstance, that is, the date of your actual termination is less than 30 days before the expiration date of the contract, and at this time, if you meet the sublease conditions, you will be exempted from all liquidated damages.
For those tenants who have a flexible termination time, it is more convenient to realize the reduction of liquidated damages through subletting, because you only need to initiate a sublease application on the Ziru APP, and then the tenant who intends to take a fancy to you through the APP will establish contact with you. If the rental market is relatively hot, the house is still better and rented out.
Taking into account the diverse needs of tenants, Ziru has carefully designed a variety of liquidated damages reduction schemes, so that tenants can choose flexibly according to their actual situation. This user-centric service concept not only demonstrates the spirit of customer first, but also effectively closes the relationship with tenants. Through these measures, Ziru provides tenants with a more intimate and humanized service experience.
