If you want to break the lease without cause prepare for a
lawsuit. On the other hand, you can probably buy them out,
which is probably what you would expect from a tenant who
wants to break a lease.
I mean, what in the heck do you think written contracts are
all about?

If I was in Washington I'd do this one pro bono just to ruin
your day.
