What happens if the subtenant doesn’t pay the rent, or damages the apartment?
You are never released from your responsibility for your lease. If your subtenant doesn’t pay their agreed share of the rent, we may go after all parties, including you, to recover that rent. Similarly, if your subtenant breaks a large hole in the wall, or disappears with any equipment/fixtures, it will be your responsibility to cover the damages.
Even though you are subleasing your apartment, you remain responsible for all terms and conditions of the lease until the lease ends. If your subtenant fails to pay their agreed share of the rent, you are liable for that amount due. Similarly, if your subtenant damages the apartment, you are liable for those damages. CHOOSE YOUR SUBTENANT CAREFULLY!
