Hi,
Hope everyone reading this to have a lovely new year.
Just for a brief background of the story,
I signed on a 2 year lease together with 2 other friends and so far we are 6 months left to terminate the contract. I signed the contract as an occupant together with a person X, and person Y as a tenant.
During the 1.5 years of staying it was agonising for me and everyone since we had so many disputes due to the personality issues and I was told from them to leave the house.
Genuinely tired of this issue (I had to go to a therapy for this), I am trying to find a way out from this house and find a new place to start anew. I had couple of my other Singaporean friends who told me that I am not abided by the house contract as an occupant and since I am not the one who declared that I will be moving out, I can legitimately ask for my 2 months deposit back.
But due to the unsettling situation with the other two people in my house, person X and Y, I am not so confident that they will happily give me back my deposit as I am leaving before the end date.
I am curious about what proper lines as an occupant can I tell them to claim my rights properly and not to be too emotionally draining about the dramas. Or else, do you think that I can approach to my landlord/agent to request to send me back the separate amount of deposit after the end of the lease?
