Don't let him push you around.
You can leave whenever you like anytime before the lease ends, but I guess he can't make you.

I own two apartment complexes with 33 units. Also 4 houses, and 2 condos. What Geronimo says is correct. You have a CONTRACT with him. He HAS to provide you with an apartment until the end of the contract, and you have to provide him with remuneration as specified. You aren't required to sign any side agreements or letters of agreement. If you haven't signed anything, then you aren't bound to anything. Bear it in mind that I am not an attorney licensed in your state.
NO, he cannot "lock you out one day". In fact, if your toilet plugs and he fails to fix the problem you can kick his ass in court! The laws about removing tenants vary by state of course, but in Florida it is a huge issue with lawyers and paperwork, et cetera. If he tries crap like not maintaining your unit you'll eat him for breakfast in court! That's a DUMB mistake!
DUDE- don't let this clown push you around! GET a lawyer! This landlord is young and stupid in my opinion, he doesn't know his rear from a hole in the ground. Your troubles with this person will end the first time he receives a letter from your attorney.
