A North Carolina sublease agreement is a legal document permitting a new renter (or “subtenant”) to live in a part of or all of a property already being rented by a tenant (the “sublessor”). As long as the original lease doesn’t ban subletting, a sublessor can rent out their property to someone else with the landlord’s permission.
In North Carolina, a tenant may sublet all or part of their currently rented property to a subtenant. This arrangement is often mutually beneficial because it allows the original tenant to earn some extra income and gives the subtenant a desirable place to live.
