Alivuokralaisuus

Alivuokralaisuus refers to a form of sub-leasing or subletting, a common practice in real estate where a tenant rents out all or part of their rented property to another person. This arrangement is typically established when the original tenant, known as the sub-landlord or head tenant, has a lease agreement with the property owner. The sub-tenant then enters into a separate agreement, a sub-lease, with the head tenant for the use of the property.

The legality and terms of alivuokralaisuus are often governed by the original lease agreement between the property owner and the head tenant, as well as local tenancy laws. In many jurisdictions, the head tenant is required to obtain permission from the property owner before sub-leasing. This permission might be explicitly stated in the original lease or may need to be requested separately. Failure to secure necessary consent can lead to breaches of the original lease, potentially resulting in eviction for the head tenant and any sub-tenants.

The sub-lease agreement between the head tenant and the sub-tenant outlines the terms of occupancy, rent payment, duration of the sub-tenancy, and any specific rules or responsibilities. The head tenant remains responsible to the property owner for the rent and the condition of the property, even if they have sub-letted. This means that if the sub-tenant causes damage or fails to pay rent to the head tenant, the head tenant is still liable to the property owner. Alivuokralaisuus can offer flexibility for both tenants and property owners, allowing for temporary accommodation needs or income generation for the head tenant.
