Description

A sublease is a transfer to a third person (the sublessee) of less than the lessee's entire interest. Sublet means to lease or rent all or part of a leased or rented property. 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.
