Yes, if the original lease prohibits subleasing or requires landlord consent. Always check the master lease and local laws.
Yes, the sublessor remains liable to the landlord for all lease terms, including damages or unpaid rent caused by the sublessee.
Generally, no. Our template (Section 10) prohibits further subleasing without written consent from both the sublessor and landlord.
The sublessor remains responsible for paying rent to the landlord. The sublessor may need to take legal action against the sublessee to recover unpaid rent.
Our template (Section 4) outlines that the sublessor holds the security deposit and must return it, minus any lawful deductions, within a specified period after the sublease ends.
About this template
A sublease agreement is a legal contract between the original tenant of a rental property (the sublessor) and a new tenant (the sublessee). This agreement allows the sublessor to rent out all or part of the leased property to the sublessee for a portion of the original lease term. The sublease agreement outlines the rights, responsibilities, and obligations of both parties, including rent payments, term duration, and other conditions of the sublease.
