FAQ

Most landlord insurance policies do not cover subletting. Therefore if your property gets damaged in some way you probably will not be covered by your landlord insurance.

If a tenant is subletting without consent, it's likely they will have broken terms in their tenancy agreement. This breach of contract means that the landlord can take action to evict them from their home. Possession proceedings can be started quickly, but it's important to follow the correct legal process.

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.The tenant still remains responsible for the payment of rent to the landlord and any damages to the property caused by the subtenant.

Since Washington has no explicit laws regarding subletting, the terms of each individual lease apply. Landlords can choose to allow or deny sublettersbut if they do reject a potential candidate, they must have a business-related reason.

To know what rights you have as a subletter, as well as if you're allowed to be there in the first place, make sure to read the original lease between the landlord and the original renter before signing a sublet agreement. Also know that you have the chance to negotiate a rental price with the original renter.

The names of the parties (the tenant, the subtenant and the landlord); information of the master/original lease; the term of the sublease and whether the sublease is fixed or periodic; and. the amount of rent payable (if different from the master lease).

Record a liability calculated as the present value of the remaining minimum lease payments due under the original (head) lease, reduced by the present value of any estimated sublease income, Write off the deferred rent from the original lease, and. Record a loss on the income statement for the difference.

On your sublease agreement, include a list of various areas of the property (including the subtenant's room, hardwood floors, walls, exterior, etc.) and note its condition. And since you and your subtenant will need to abide by the original lease that you signed, it's important to include this with your sublease.

Subleasing occurs when the tenant transfers a part of their legal tenancy to a third-party as a new tenant.That means that if a new subtenant does not pay rent for three months, the original tenant that subleased the property is liable to the landlord for the overdue rent amount and any late fees.
