This is a letter from a tenant to the landlord concerning the landlord's refusal to permit tenant to sublease the premises to a sub-tenant. Tenant is also informing the landlord of his/her reserving of legal rights and remedies, should the landlord continue to prevent a lease assignment.
A subtenant is someone who has the right to use and occupy rental property leased by a tenant from a landlord. A subtenant has responsibilities to both the landlord and the tenant. A tenant must often get the consent of the landlord before subletting rental property to a subtenant. The tenant still remains responsible for the payment of rent to the landlord and any damages to the property caused by the subtenant, unless the landlord agrees to release the tenant from liability.
Generally, to evict a roommate, you must be the original tenant (or the one who has signed a lease or rental agreement with the landlord), and the roommate you want to evict must be your landlord's subtenant. A subtenant is usually someone who is renting part of your place from you and paying rent to you instead of your landlord. In this relationship, you are the "landlord" and your roommate is your "tenant."
A tenant acting in the capacity of a landlord who resides in the same rental unit with his or her subtenant may be able to evict said subtenant without just cause, as required under some local landlord-tenant laws, which vary by locality. Depending on local law, a master tenant must give written notice to the subtenant a certain number of says in advance of eviction. If the subtenant doesn't leave, it may be necessary to file an unlawful detainer lawsuit.
Under some local laws, a tenant who subleases his or her rental unit may charge no more rent upon initial occupancy of the subtenants than that rent which the tenant is currently paying to the landlord. In other words, a master tenant cannot profit off of their landlord's property.

Keywords: Escondido, California, letter, tenant, landlord, refusal, sublease, unreasonable -------------------------------------------------------------- [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] Subject: Request for Reconsideration — Unreasonable Refusal to Allow Sublease Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to discuss the matter of subleasing as it relates to my tenancy at [Property Address], for which I am currently the tenant. I regret to inform you that I find your recent decision to refuse permission for subleasing to be unreasonable. Furthermore, I kindly request you reconsider your stance, as I firmly believe that allowing sublease arrangements benefits both parties involved. Subleasing has become a prevalent practice in Escondido, California, due to its numerous advantages for tenants and landlords alike. However, before delving into the benefits, I would like to address the legality and terms of subleasing as outlined in our lease agreement. [Mention relevant clauses from your lease agreement]. 1. Financial Stability: Subleasing allows me, as the tenant, to secure reliable income to meet my financial obligations. This arrangement lessens the risk of any payment delays or defaults, ensuring a steady inflow of rent. 2. Limited Liability: By subleasing, I take on the responsibility of finding a suitable subtenant, conducting background checks, and setting clear terms. This process helps to maintain the property's condition and ensures that the person occupying it adheres to the lease terms we agreed upon. 3. Mitigating Vacancy Period: When unforeseen circumstances arise, such as work relocation, medical emergencies, or family matters, subleasing presents a viable solution to decrease the property's vacancy period. This not only benefits me but also ensures the continued income to you as the landlord until the end of the lease term. Despite these advantages, I understand that you may have concerns regarding subleasing. However, it is crucial to note that my intention to sublease is not due to any dissatisfaction with the property or its management. It is purely driven by personal circumstances that require me to seek a temporary tenant while ensuring my rent obligation is fulfilled. I kindly ask that you reconsider your refusal to allow subleasing. By doing so, we can maintain a good tenant-landlord relationship and avoid potential legal disputes or inconveniences that may arise from disregarding a reasonable request. If you have any questions or require additional information, I am more than willing to sit down and discuss the matter further. I believe that open communication and finding a mutually agreeable solution is in our best interest. Thank you for your time and consideration. I hope we can reach an agreement that benefits both parties involved. I look forward to your prompt response.
