Dear team!
Kindly i had a contract for a rental apartment and in the contract the owner stated 3 month notice before i can leave, so i send the notice of leaving the apartment at 02-05-2021, However the owner wants me to pay until the end of August 2021, as he wants to consider the notice from 31-05-2021, meanwhile he don't want to pay the deposit back, so what should i do please?

Hi! Thank you for turning to lawline with your question.
According to 12 chapter 5 § JB a tenant has the right to terminate a lease with three months notice, 12 kap. 5 § JB. The lease ceases at the end/"turn" of the month earliest after three months from the termination. Therefore you have to count three months from 02-05-2021 which is 02-08-2021 and then add that full month since the lease ceases at the end of each month.
If you have any other questions, feel free to get back to us at Lawline.
Kind regards,
