Sublease Agreement A sublease is an agreement in which you rent your apartment to another person with the property owner's permission. Before you consider this alternative, be sure to ask your manager if subleasing is allowed. If subleasing is allowed, you become a sub-manager. You will still be held responsible for the apartment, including damages and rent. You are not entitled to receive your security deposit back until your lease term ends.
Some property owners have agreement arrangements designed for such circumstances.
This is one that is provided by our office. The lease will state what responsibilities, if any, the owner will assume concerning repairs and maintenance. This site outlines what steps are required by most TAA leases to get repairs made. Also, information on the channels to take when repairs are not made also is provided. All underlined portions will be changed according to your present situation.
