The process of assignment of a lease is essentially selling the lease to a third party (the assignee). If you are a commercial property tenant, your contract likely contains a clause that allows you to assign your lease to a new tenant. To do this, you will need to find a potential new tenant yourself.
You can apply to the NSW Civil and Administrative Tribunal (NCAT) for an order that allows the transfer or sub-let. The Tribunal will decide if the landlord's withholding consent is reasonable. You must apply to the Tribunal within 3 months of becoming aware that the landlord has withheld consent do not delay.
An assignment of lease can only work if your landlord agrees with your intention to transfer your lease to someone else. If you know someone who would be willing to take over your lease, you can apply to your landlord for an assignment of lease. If they agree, you can get out of your commercial lease without fuss.
Allow six to eight weeks for a 'standard' lease transaction from receiving the heads of terms from the agents to actually signing. For very short leases it can be as little as a few days or a couple of weeks but expect to have much less flexibility about what goes into the documents.
An assignment is when the tenant transfers their lease interest to a new tenant using a Lease Assignment. The assignee takes the assignor's place in the landlord-tenant relationship, although the assignor may remain liable for damages, missed rent payments, and other lease violations.
