You have found someone who
is interested in your dwelling, as an assignee or a
sub-tenant. Sign a written agreement right away (assignment of lease
agreement
or a sublet lease) which will be conditional on the landlord
granting consent.
Concluding the agreement will be explained later on.
Next, advise the landlord, in writing, of the name
and address of the interested person :
this information must be given. Needless to say you may
also provide the landlord
with further information as long as you have the consent
of your «candidate».
The notice should also include the projected date for the assignment
or the sublet.
We suggest that you use the models of these notices which are
available at the Régie.
Make sure that you can
prove the date that the landlord received the notice because he
has 15 days from this date to let you know whether he accepts
or refuses the person you
have proposed. If he does not reply, he is presumed to
have accepted.
If he agrees, the landlord
has the right to be reimbursed for reasonable related expenses
(for example, the cost of a credit search).
