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.
Title: Addressing Unreasonable Refusal of Sublease in Santa Ana, California — Tenant's Letter to Landlord Keywords: Santa Ana California, sublease, letter, tenant, landlord, refusal, unreasonable, legal rights, rental agreement, compliance, negotiation, fairness, market conditions, financial hardship, property management, possible remedies. Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to address an issue that has arisen recently, concerning your refusal to grant my reasonable request for subleasing the premises located at [Rental Property Address] in Santa Ana, California. As you are aware, according to our signed rental agreement, I have the right to sublease the property during my tenancy, provided I adhere to the necessary procedures and seek your approval. Unfortunately, your denial of this request seems to be grounded unreasonably, which compels me to voice my concern. The primary purpose of subleasing, as outlined in our rental agreement, is to allow tenants such as myself to accommodate genuine circumstances that may arise during our stay. Considering the dynamic nature of the rental market in Santa Ana, it is only fair that tenants have the flexibility to explore viable solutions, especially when faced with unexpected financial hardships or personal obligations that prevent them from fulfilling their lease obligations. However, your outright refusal to grant my request for subleasing fails to acknowledge and accommodate the spirit of our agreement. I firmly believe that subletting, within reason, promotes a harmonious landlord-tenant relationship and upholds the principles of fairness and cooperation. Furthermore, I would like to highlight how my proposed sublease arrangement aligns with legal guidelines and poses no conceivable risk to you or the property. The sublessee, whose details and credentials have been shared with you, has a well-documented history of responsible tenancy and a solid financial background. Their reliability, coupled with the added advantage of maintaining occupancy and stability at the property, makes my case a reasonable one. I kindly request that we reconsider and engage in an open dialogue regarding my need for subleasing. I trust that we can come to a mutual understanding, taking into account market conditions, our contractual agreement, and the broader objectives of maintaining a mutually beneficial rental relationship. In light of my commitment to resolving this matter fairly, I have researched possible remedies within the existing legal framework regarding landlord-tenant relations in Santa Ana, California. However, I strongly believe in our ability to reach an agreeable resolution through open communication and negotiation, without resorting to such measures. I kindly request that we schedule a meeting at your earliest convenience to further discuss this matter and find a resolution that works for both parties. Your cooperation and understanding in this regard are greatly appreciated. Thank you for your attention, and I look forward to a constructive dialogue and prompt resolution.
