FAQ
Consent to Assignment is a clause used in contractual agreements that requires one party to obtain the permission of the other party before transferring their rights and obligations under the contract to a third party.
With a Landlord's Consent to Lease Assignment, landlords and property managers can give formal approval to tenants who wish to exit their lease agreement and transfer it to a new tenant before the rental term is complete.
Once the landlord's consent has been obtained, the tenant and assignee can enter into a deed of assignment to transfer the lease to the assignee. If the lease is registered at the Land Registry the assignee will then need to register the assignment at the Land Registry.
Templates for lease agreements are widely available online; however, it is important to know how to write a lease agreement and what information must be included. Even if you decide to draft your own lease agreement, it is good practice to have it reviewed by an experienced attorney before executing.

An assignment is a full transfer of the lease between the tenant and the assignee. Therefore, since the tenant no longer has any ownership interest in the property, there is no longer any relationship between the landlord and the tenant as far as the property ownership is concerned.
'Assigning' a lease simply means transferring your lease to another person so that they become the new tenant. Once the assignment has taken place the lease continues to exist and the new tenant becomes liable for all of the tenant's obligations in the lease.
