A potentially devastating detriment to a sublease is its subject to the original tenant not defaulting. You could be compliant with your sublease and receive notice your lease is terminated because the original tenant defaulted. You could be subject to the landlord's new terms or be forced to vacate.

Introduction. A sublease is a process of renting out a property to a third party by a tenant for a time period of the lease contract of the existing tenant. Lease contracts are contracts between a tenant and the owner of the property.

A sublet, or sublease agreement, adds someone new to an existing lease. Usually the new person (subletter) replaces someone who is moving out (sublessor or sublessee) but it can also happen with any new person being added to a lease.

In a standard lease, the tenant has direct obligations to the landlord including paying rent, maintaining the property, and complying with lease terms. In a sublease, the original tenant retains these responsibilities to the landlord, even after subleasing the property.
