FAQ
Only landlords are allowed to evict their tenants. 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.Similarly, roommates who are co-tenants cannot evict their fellow co-tenants.
A tenant has signed a lease or rental agreement with a landlord. A subtenant, on the other hand, is someone who subleases or rents all or part of the rental property from a tenant, and does not sign a lease or rental agreement with the landlord.
A sublease is a legally binding contract made between a tenant and a new tenant (also known as a subtenant or a sublessee).Usually, the first tenant must get consent from the landlord before he/she is allowed to sublease the premises.
A subtenant is not a cotenant and does not have a direct relationship with your landlord. As their landlord, you can (and should) require them to pay rent directly to you and evict them if they fail to follow through. This differs from a cotenant, who can be evicted only by your landlord.
If the headlease is forfeited because the tenant has breached its terms, the underlease will end automatically.As an alternative, a tenant may be able to agree with the landlord that if the headlease is forfeited and the underlease falls away, the landlord will grant a new lease to the undertenant.
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.
The Subtenant or Sublessee is the person who is entering into a lease for some or all of the Landlord's property from the Sublandlord (the original tenant).The Master/Original lease is the lease that the Sublandlord (the original tenant) entered into with the Landlord.
If a court finds you guilty of the first offence of unlawful subletting, you can be fined in the magistrates' court.At the magistrates' court, you can get up to six months in prison or a fine, or both. At the Crown Court the maximum penalty is imprisonment for two years or a fine, or both.
