Can my landord put this in our lease agreement Provides that rental payments may be accelerated if the rental?

Question

I found it in our lease then I went to the Truth in Renting Act

Answer 1

It's a common clause to accelerate the remainder of the lease if you break it or violate the terms of the lease. Whether or not the LL can enforce it is another matter. Normally you can only be held liable until the LL places a new tenant. Many courts have held that 2 months is sufficient time to place a new tenant so that may limit your liability.

Answer 2

assuming this is a residential lease in USA, many landlords can place that clause but in every state their is statute which will require the landlord to mitigate their damage and re-rent as soon as possible, and since the landlord can not double dip, this statute basically nullify the lease provision

now if commercial different animal, most likely you may be liable for the entire lease provision
