A Landlord's Letter Denying a Sublease is a letter that may be sent by a landlord (also known as the "lessor") denying or rejecting the request of the tenant (also known as "lessee") to sublease a particular real property. This letter informs and serves as a notice to the tenant that the property should not be subleased or assigned to another. The importance of this letter is to apprise the tenant of what the landlord prohibits and to prevent a breach of the lease agreement. This document can also include what the tenant may be liable for in case he violates the lease agreement by subleasing the property or in case he subleases the property without the landlord's consent.
On the other hand, in case the landlord consents or allows the subleasing of the property, then a Landlord's Consent to Sublease may be used.
