A Florida sublease agreement is considered a standard and legal method of documenting a sublease arrangement between a sub-lessor and sub-lessee. This type of contract will give one party (sub-lessee) the right to maintain residence in a property where another party (sub-lessor) holds a lease with the landlord/property manager. Thus, three separate parties are involved, all of whom must agree and consent to the sublet living situation by signing the agreement. While the landlord continues to be responsible for upholding their obligations with the sub-lessor through the main lease, the sub-lessor shall be liable to the landlord in that lease and responsible as a landlord in the separate sublease with the sub-lessee. Note that the sub-lessee does not have a direct agreement with the property owner and, thus, would not have a legal right to lease the property if the primary lease were to end or be otherwise terminated.
