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.

Introduction: Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to address a matter of utmost importance concerning my rights as a tenant and seek your reconsideration over your decision to unreasonably refuse my request for subleasing the property at [rental address]. 1. Background and Rental Agreement Review: According to our rental agreement dated [agreement start date], both parties agreed to the terms and conditions outlined within. It is essential to acknowledge that a fair and balanced agreement should allow tenants the right to sublet, subject to landlord approval, of course. By refusing to consider my sublease request, it seems that this critical provision has been overlooked. 2. The Reasonableness of Subleasing: Subleasing is a common and often necessary practice in the rental market. It enables tenants like me to adapt to changes in circumstances, such as employment relocations, family emergencies, or unforeseen financial hardships. By allowing subleasing with proper due diligence, landlords can maintain the tenancy agreement's continuity while ensuring responsible occupancy and timely rent payment. 3. Respect for Property Maintenance: I want to assure you that my intention to sublease does not compromise the property's condition or occupancy standards. I have always taken great care of the premises, promptly reporting any maintenance issues and ensuring cleanliness and order throughout my tenancy. Moreover, I remain accountable for the actions and obligations of any subtenant, thereby alleviating any concerns regarding property maintenance. 4. The Legal Right to Sublease: Based on Wisconsin's landlord-tenant laws, a landlord can only deny a subleasing request if they provide valid reasons such as questionable financial stability, unsatisfactory background checks, or previous lease violations. Your failure to provide any substantiated basis for refusal raises questions about the validity of your decision and may constitute a breach of the rental agreement and applicable laws. 5. Request for Reconsideration and Open Discussion: I firmly believe that open and honest communication between landlords and tenants is key to maintaining a positive and respectful relationship. I kindly request that you reconsider your decision and engage in a discussion regarding my subleasing request. I am more than willing to provide all relevant details about the prospective subtenant, including references, employment verification, and a proposed sublease agreement for your review. Conclusion: In light of the above, I respectfully appeal to your sense of fairness and adherence to our rental agreement. I hope that through open dialogue, we can reach a mutually beneficial solution that ensures a seamless transition and protects both our interests.
