Can I terminate the tenancy contract after finding damages in the villa?

Dear Rajasree,

I have an inquiry regarding my current new rent contract situation. I have a signed rental contract for a villa, with a move date of 1st of July.

Upon inspecting the empty villa after the previous tenants vacated, we've informed the landlord of the broken door and window handles (which is a security hazard), many fixes of broken tiles, ceiling cracks, and paintwork to fix water-damaged spots.

We have not received any response from the landlord, which would constitute a breach in the contract of clause 3 & clause 20 of the contract addendum.

In the case of breaching contract terms before the move-in date stated on the contract (first of July) for the above-mentioned issues that include safety and security hazards, I would not be comfortable moving in with my family in such conditions.

What would be my rights to cancel this contract?

Would there be a penalty on the landlord for not honoring the contract terms?

Thank you.
