They are ripoff artists. Maybe you can do you exit thing ahead of time, but it's a sick joke these landlords here.
If the landlord is pushy, stand your ground. They will not respect you. Sort of like how Reagan dealed with the Russians. | |

I completely agree these landlords here are such ripoff artists that I have never seen something like this. Even so called 'professional' companies are real frauds. I am really surprised that these kind of things are going on and people are desperate to move here. 8 out of 10 are fraudmasters. You have to be very lucky to get the two good ones. Like 1 year to return deposit and this kind of nonsense.
As far as non payment of the last 2 or 3 months deposit (depending on whether it is 2 or 3), it is a tough one. I don't think the landlord can do much really but Mieterverband advised me not to do it so I just paid up in my case. If the person is leaving the country then it is really a tough call on what to do: not pay the last 2 or 3 months rent or just pay up ?
