FAQ

The purpose of an assignment of lease is to assign or transfer the rights and obligations of the tenant under the lease to another party (also called the new tenant or a third party).

The tenant may want to assign their lease for several reasons — such as wanting to move to another property before the end of the lease term or wanting to sublease the property to another tenant.

A Lease is a contract between a landlord and tenant in which the landlord agrees to let the tenant use their property or premises for a set period in return for regular payments.

An assignment occurs when the tenant transfers their entire interest in the property to a third party, who then takes on the obligations and rights of the tenant for the remainder of the lease term.

Upon the completion of the assignment, the original tenant no longer has any obligations or rights under the lease.

It depends. However, a lease can be assigned to another party in most cases. To confirm this, you should revisit your lease agreement to see if it contains any language that explicitly prohibits such an assignment. If there is no such provision, you can assign the lease to a third party with your landlord’s approval in a lease assignment agreement.

To fill out a lease assignment form, you need to mention the effective date on which the legal transfer of the lease will take place.

Next, basic information about the tenant, the assignee, and the property should be listed.

Terms, conditions, and affirmations of the assignment should also be specified, including any changes to the rent amount, lease length, and other pertinent information.

Prior approval or notice must be taken from the landlord too. Lastly, the agreement should be duly signed by all parties.

A lease assignment agreement is a contract between a tenant and a third party. By creating this document, the tenant can assign or transfer their interests and obligations in the lease to another party for the remaining lease period. It spells out the terms and conditions of the transfer and the responsibilities of the parties involved.
