An Arkansas sublease agreement allows tenants to rent part (or all) of their rental property to a subtenant. In Arkansas, it is required that a tenant receive written permission from their landlord before subletting.
It’s important to understand that with a sublease in Arkansas, the subtenant living at the property will be subject to the terms and conditions of the original lease agreement the initial tenant has with the landlord or property manager.
Furthermore, the sublessor would be held liable for any lease violations or damage caused to the property and that rent is paid on time.
