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.
Understand the agreement before you sign it.
Review risky clauses in plain English, fix the document, and keep it moving toward signature.
