Sublease Agreement
Allows a tenant to sublet their rental unit to a subtenant. Defines rent, duration, and responsibilities between all parties.
Why you need one
Legal subletting
Many leases prohibit unauthorized sublets. A proper sublease agreement keeps you in compliance.
Landlord approval
Includes the required landlord consent language so your sublease is authorized.
Liability clarity
Defines who is responsible for what — the original tenant, the subtenant, or both.
