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: Stamford Connecticut Letter from Tenant to Landlord about Landlord's Refusal to Allow Sublease is Unreasonable Keywords: Stamford Connecticut, letter, tenant, landlord, refusal, sublease, unreasonable Introduction: Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to address a matter of great concern regarding your recent decision to refuse my request for subleasing the property located at [property address], in Stamford, Connecticut. I believe your denial is unjustified, and it raises several important issues that need to be thoroughly discussed. 1. Importance of Sublease: As a tenant, I have legitimate reasons for seeking a sublease arrangement. These reasons include personal circumstances such as job relocation, financial burdens, or significant life events that may require temporary or permanent relocation. A sublease allows me to fulfill my contractual obligations while mitigating any potential financial hardships. 2. Compliance with Lease Agreement: It is essential to emphasize that my proposal to sublease the property strictly adheres to the terms and conditions outlined in our lease agreement. I have carefully vetted potential subtenants to ensure their suitability and reliability. Furthermore, I have drafted a comprehensive sublease agreement, consistent with the lease terms, to provide legal protection and ensure that all parties uphold their obligations and responsibilities. 3. Mitigating Financial Liabilities: By allowing subleasing, I aim to alleviate financial burdens associated with paying rent for a property I am unable to occupy. It is crucial to acknowledge that my ability to maintain prompt payments and upkeep of the property is contingent upon finding a suitable sublessee. Denying this request places an unnecessary financial strain on me, which may complicate my ability to meet the rental obligations. 4. Preservation of the Property: I acknowledge your concerns regarding potential damage caused by the sublessee. However, I want to assure you that I have taken all necessary precautions to ensure the property's preservation and safety. The sublessee will be subjected to the same rigorous screening and credit-check procedures that were conducted when I initially leased the property. Additionally, I will remain responsible for any damages caused by the sublessee during their occupancy. 5. Local Legal Framework: It is vital to highlight that Stamford, Connecticut, offers specific guidelines and regulations regarding subleasing. These local laws protect both tenants and landlords, mitigating the potential risks associated with subtenant arrangements.
