Watch out for
No landlord consent
Most leases require written landlord approval before subletting; without it you risk eviction.
Original tenant stays liable
If the subtenant fails to pay or causes damage, the original tenant is typically still on the hook.
Tips
- •Get the landlord’s written consent first
- •Match sublease dates to the master lease
- •Both parties should sign and keep a copy — an unsigned agreement is hard to enforce.
Frequently asked questions
- Do I need my landlord’s permission?
- Almost always yes. Check your lease and attach the written consent before the subtenant moves in.
- Am I still responsible for rent?
- Usually yes — the original tenant remains liable to the landlord unless the lease is formally reassigned.
- Can I sublease only one room?
- Yes. Describe exactly which space and shared areas the subtenant may use.
