What are my obligations leaving my rental early?



I absolutely hate the place I am living in. I found it on Facebook marketplace place and spoke only to the head roommate. They wanted me to cover the leaving roommates lease however never ended up sending it to me so I haven’t signed anything. I also never spoke with the landlord or signed anything else regarding moving in.



I said I’d stay till November over text to the roommate but I hate the place so much I need to leave. There stinky cat littler that filled the entire house up, my other roommate makes me feel super uncomfortable and tbh the entire experience was not as advertised. I said I’d be moving out this week, and that I’d cover rent for the next two weeks too so they aren’t left in the lurch.



In NSW, Australia, given I never spoke with the landlord and never signed a rental agreement/lease, what are my obligations for leaving? I just want to make sure I do the right thing.

If I never signed a lease or spoke with the landlord, can I just leave?
