Pennsylvania Sublease Agreement

A Pennsylvania sublease agreement formalizes a rental arrangement between a current tenant (sublessor) and a new tenant (sublessee). Under a sublease, the original tenant typically moves out and acts as a landlord to the new tenant, allowing them to fulfill their obligations under the original lease until it ends.

Right to Sublet

In Pennsylvania, a tenant’s right to sublet depends on their lease agreement. This contract likely dictates whether subletting is permissible. If the lease included no mention of subletting or barred it, the landlord can still grant permission using a Landlord Consent Form.

Short-Term Tax

The 6% Pennsylvania Hotel Occupancy Tax applies to any residential rental arrangements of less than 30 days organized using online platforms or third-party brokers.[1] Additional county taxes may be imposed; for example, Philadelphia County charges an additional 1%.
