Subleasing An Apartment - Need to Minimize Liability

[Scott Sauter]

I have an ongoing lease (6 more months) that I’m going to sublet. I’m a first time investment buyer & don’t want to wait the full term of my lease to buy.

The apartment complex I’m at leaves me obligated to cover any unpaid rent & damages from the sublet tenant.

What steps should I take when qualifying a sublet tenant to ensure they pay rent & don’t damage the place?
