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.
Subject: Urgent Letter from Tenant to Landlord Protesting Unreasonable Refusal to Allow Sublease in Jurupa Valley, California Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to express my deep concerns regarding your refusal to grant me permission for subleasing my rental unit located at [property address] in Jurupa Valley, California. I believe this decision is unfair, unreasonable, and warrants immediate reconsideration. First and foremost, it is crucial to understand that my desire to sublease is not driven by any capricious intent. Due to job relocation necessitated by unforeseen circumstances, it has become unavoidable for me to temporarily vacate the premises. In light of this prevailing situation, subleasing would provide me with an essential means of meeting my contractual obligations as well as mitigating unnecessary financial hardships. As a tenant, I fully comprehend and respect the terms outlined in our lease agreement. I have duly scrutinized the relevant sections and clauses, and to my knowledge, subleasing is not explicitly prohibited nor is it in violation of any stated terms. It's important to note that my only intention is to find a trustworthy, responsible subtenant who meets the same stringent criteria we established during the tenant screening process, thereby ensuring the property's well-being while I am away. Furthermore, many jurisdictions including Jurupa Valley, California, recognize the rights of tenants to sublease their rental units, provided that the process adheres to certain legal and reasonable guidelines. Denying this right without valid and compelling reasons could potentially be considered an infringement upon tenants' legal rights as outlined by state and local laws. I kindly request that you verify the applicability of Jurupa Valley's regulations regarding subleasing and reconsider your stance on this matter accordingly. By refusing to grant permission for subleasing, you not only impose a significant financial burden upon me but also jeopardize the harmonious relationship we have enjoyed thus far. I believe it is in the best interest of both parties to collaborate and find a mutually beneficial solution. Suggestions such as amending the lease agreement to include a specific subleasing clause, requiring subtenants to adhere to the same rental terms, or requiring subtenants to undergo the same thorough screening process should be considered as equitable resolutions. I genuinely value your role as a landlord and am grateful for your prompt attention to this matter. I kindly request that you respond to this correspondence within [reasonable timeframe] to discuss the possibility of resolving this dispute and granting me rightful permission to sublease my rental unit. Your cooperation and understanding in this matter will undoubtedly foster a sense of goodwill and ensure a positive resolution for all parties involved. Thank you for your time and consideration. I eagerly await your response. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Contact Information] Alternate Titles: 1. Formal Protest against Unreasonable Refusal to Allow Sublease — Jurupa Valley, California 2.
