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.
Stockton California Letter from Tenant to Landlord about Landlord's refusal to allow sublease is unreasonable: Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to express my concerns regarding your recent decision to refuse my request for subleasing the rental unit located at [address]. I believe your refusal is unreasonable and unjustified. Please allow me to explain in detail why subleasing is necessary and beneficial for both parties. First and foremost, I have thoroughly reviewed my lease agreement, and there is no clause or provision that explicitly forbids subleasing. As a responsible and lawful tenant, I have abided by all the terms stated in the lease and have taken good care of the property during my tenancy. Therefore, I should have the right to sublease the premises if necessary. One of the primary reasons I am seeking to sublease the property is due to an unforeseen job transfer that requires me to relocate to another city temporarily. While I fully understand the importance of notifying you and providing appropriate documentation for the subtenant, I believe denying this request without proper justification is unfair. Subleasing would allow me to fulfill my contractual obligations while avoiding the financial burden of paying rent for a vacant unit. Furthermore, subleasing would also benefit you as the landlord. By allowing me to sublease, you would ensure a consistent flow of rental income while avoiding the difficulties of finding a new tenant to occupy the premises. You would also have the opportunity to review and approve the subtenant before finalizing any agreements, assuring you that the property will remain in good hands. Additionally, I want to emphasize that I have carefully selected a credible and trustworthy subtenant who has provided all necessary personal and financial information. This subtenant has a strong rental history, excellent references, and employment stability, making them a reliable candidate. I am more than willing to introduce you to the potential subtenant and provide any additional documentation or assurances you may require. I kindly request that you reconsider your decision and allow me to proceed with the subleasing arrangement. Your refusal without reasonable grounds not only violates my rights as a tenant but also goes against the spirit of a fair and collaborative landlord-tenant relationship. If you still choose to persist in your refusal, I request that you provide a written explanation outlining the specific reasons for your denial. This will allow me the opportunity to address any concerns you may have and explore potential solutions amicably. I genuinely hope we can resolve this issue promptly and fairly, as it is in the best interest of both parties. I eagerly await your response and look forward to finding a mutually beneficial resolution to this matter. Thank you for your attention and understanding.
