Subleasing, also known as subletting, is when an existing tenant rents some or all of their rental property to a subtenant. A sublet allows direct landlord communication with the subtenant, unlike a sublease, where the legal relationship is between the primary and subtenant.I believe the difference is that if you sublet, you are interacting with the landlord, and you have a direct contract with them. A "subtenant" is a party who subleases the premises (or a portion thereof) to another party under a lease agreement known as a "sublease. Moving to a new unit within the county (with the exception of Pittsburg), is called a "transfer. " This is a different process than a "portable." If the family does not fulfill its obligations for the repair of damages, as stated in the lease, their assistance may be terminated. Even if a sublease is permitted, the original tenant is still liable for the obligations stated in the lease agreement, such as the payment of rent each month. NonPayment: Failure to pay rent or other required fees as specified in the lease agreement. In Alameda County or Contra Costa County they'll make up the rest of the rent.
