Subletting is when the original renter (the “sublessor”) remains responsible for a lease, and either lives with a sublessee (the new tenant), or has a sublessee take their place living in the home.
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.
California law requires tenants to seek explicit, written permission from their landlords to sublet if it is not already allowed in the lease. Landlords have the right to approve or deny these requests unless prohibited by a local ordinance.
Under California civil code, tenants without leases maintain rights like limits on rent increases, proper notice before eviction, and requiring the landlord to maintain habitable living conditions. Be aware that without a lease, landlords only need to provide 30 days' notice to increase rent or terminate tenancy.
A master tenant is considered a landlord in relation to his or her subtenant, meaning that a master tenant is able to evict a subtenant. Subtenants do not have the right to evict their master tenant or other subtenants or roommates. Similarly, roommates who are co-tenants cannot evict their fellow co-tenants.
The Sublessee shall have the right to sublet the whole (but not less than the whole) of the Leased Premises, subject to the condition that the subletting of the Leased Premises shall be subject to the prior written consent of the Sublessor and the Minister, and any Sublease shall comply with the Bylaws.
