Key features

    From the assignment date it is bound as if named in the lease, and gives that undertaking to the landlord by signing.

  • The outgoing tenant's position

    Responsible up to the assignment date, then released or still responsible, as the landlord has agreed.

  • What is owed and the deposit

    Rent paid to a date, anything outstanding and who pays it, and what happens to the deposit.

  • Conditions, guarantee and costs

    Conditions you write in, whether a guarantee is required, and the landlord's reasonable costs and who pays.

About this document

A landlord's consent to lease assignment records that a landlord agrees to a lease passing from an outgoing tenant to an incoming one. It identifies the lease and assignment, states what the incoming tenant takes on, what the outgoing tenant remains liable for, what is owed, the deposit and any conditions or guarantee.

It is signed by the landlord, the outgoing tenant, the incoming tenant and, where one is required, a guarantor. The consent is for this assignment only and waives no breach. What a landlord may require, and whether it can withhold consent, are matters for the lease and local law.
