Sublease is a contractual arrangement between two parties, a tenant (the sublessor) and a subtenant, in which the tenant leases out a portion of their leased property to the subtenant. This allows the tenant to share their rental space with the subtenant and split the cost of the rent. The tenant is still responsible for the full rent to the landlord, and the landlord is not typically involved in the sublease agreement. There are two main types of subleases: full subleases and partial subleases. A full sublease is when the tenant transfers the entirety of their lease to the subtenant, and the subtenant assumes all the tenant's obligations for the remainder of the lease term. A partial sublease is when the tenant transfers only part of their lease to the subtenant, and the tenant still retains responsibility for the remainder of the lease.
