We own a house in Indiana, a tenant has a lease with a clause saying that they can be free of the lease with 45 days notice if their employer relocates them and with proper documentation from the employer. They have given this notice with 4 months remaining because they built a house closer to his work and want to get out of the lease and move into their new house. His place of work is the same as it has been for the last two years. The leased house was about 20 miles away from his work so they are probably moving 15 to 18 miles closer. They have gotten a letter from their employer saying they relocated them closer to his work. His job is not one where he would need to be close. Are they legally able to use this to get them out of the lease even though the employer did not relocate them to another location for work and probably is just doing this as a favor to help him get out of the lease? We have a property management company that has been managing the house and they just want to let the tenants get out of the lease without challenging it even though they acknowledge someone at his company probably just did him a favor by writing the relocation letter.
Thank you
