RESIDENTIAL SUBLEASE AGREEMENT FAQ


What is a Residential Sublease Agreement?

A Residential Sublease Agreement is a contract between a tenant (the sublessor) and another tenant (the sublessee) that allows the sublessee to occupy the rental property while the original lease remains in effect.


Why is a Residential Sublease Agreement important?

It clarifies the rights and responsibilities of both sublessor and sublessee, prevents misunderstandings, and ensures compliance with the original lease terms and landlord’s requirements. Without a written sublease, both parties face higher legal and financial risks.


When should you use a Residential Sublease Agreement?

Use it when a tenant needs to vacate the property temporarily or permanently but wants another person to take over the rental obligations for all or part of the lease term, subject to landlord approval.


What should a Residential Sublease Agreement include?

It should identify the property, parties, lease term, rent payment, security deposit, rules of the original lease, maintenance responsibilities, and termination conditions.


Does the landlord need to approve a Residential Sublease Agreement?

Yes, in most jurisdictions and under most lease contracts, landlord approval is required before a sublease can take effect.
