Quick answer
Estimate possible Sydney break lease costs and organise reletting-related records.
Quick estimate
Estimate possible Sydney break lease costs and organise reletting-related records. Start with weekly rent, expected vacant weeks, advertising or reletting items, and any known fixed amounts.
Costs to separate
Separate rent exposure from once-off fees. Rent exposure usually depends on timing, while advertising, reletting, cleaning or administration items should be checked against records and invoices.
Evidence to ask for
Ask for itemised amounts, lease references, dates, invoices, advertising records and evidence of efforts to find a replacement renter where relevant.
Use the calculator before agreeing
Run the related break lease calculator, compare the result with the claimed amount, and keep the estimate with your lease, emails and condition records.
