Although subletting is permitted on a case by case basis, there are several considerations that go into this decision.
Our team is motivated to keep our residents happy and we will do everything in our power to work with you and help assist in your request for a sublet. We will outline some important considerations below that hopefully add clarity to your request.
Any requests or communications related to joint and several lease agreements must include each of the members of that corresponding agreement. In other words, if you are looking for a sublet to take over your bedroom, your roommate(s) must be included in the process and agree to resident swap.
Important Terms

- -Sublessee – the individual currently residing in the unit
Important Considerations
- 1. Residents are a member of a joint and several lease agreement with no early termination clause.
- 2. All sublettor applicants will follow the same application and screening process that the sublessee was required to complete.
