The sublease applies if the person who signed the lease intends to evacuate the unit for a short period of time and expects it to return later. In the context of a sublease, the lessor is not required to accept an extension of the current tenancy agreement with the subtenant. At the top of the rental agreement, your name and that of the owner, as well as the name of a manager or concierge, as well as the corresponding addresses and phone numbers, must be mentioned. You should also ask what number can be reached in an emergency. If you have a roommate, we advise you to sign a separate rental agreement. If the landlord and tenant have not agreed on the date of the end or renewal of the oral lease, the tenant can terminate it with a two-month period. The transfer or transfer of rent applies if the person signing the lease does not intend to return to the apartment. The person hands over all rights to the new tenant. The rent transfer frees the original tenant from all rights and responsibilities of the dwelling from the date of the transfer. Tenants can terminate their leases so they can move their units before their leases expire.

Tenants can only terminate their leases in specific cases. If, for any reason, the subtenant wishes to file an application with the Housing Authority, this must be done by the person holding the tenancy agreement and not by the subtenant. Leases are sold in the offices of the Administrative Housing Tribunal, in bookstores and through Quebec publications (1-800-463-2100). The rental form can also be purchased online on the Publications du Québec website. A rental agreement is a lease agreement for a rental unit. It is signed between a tenant and a landlord. In this document, the landlord agrees to make available to the tenant a rental unit in good condition for rent. Yes, yes. When signing a tenancy agreement, the landlord must provide the tenant with a written notice indicating the lowest rent paid in the 12 months prior to the start of the lease or the rent set by the Housing Authority. This information is usually written in section G of the lease.

If your apartment is not in good condition and livable, you or your landlord can ask the Board to terminate the lease. To find out how, see our rental article: Cleanliness, safety and repair status. A tenancy agreement is an intermediate contract between a landlord and a tenant that defines their respective obligations with respect to a dwelling.
