When a tenant chooses to assign his/her lease in a dwelling to another, the original lease often requires that for such an assignment to be valid, the landlord must consent to the assignment. The following document is a Landlord’s Consent to Assignment. It simply states that the landlord will allow the assignment; however, depending on the provisions of your original lease, the original tenant may still be responsible for the performance of the lease if the assignee (the new tenant) fails in his duties (e.g. to pay the rent). This form should only be used if a separate sublease agreement is not being used. If there is a separate sublease agreement, please use our Landlord’s Consent to Sublease instead of this form.

This form can be used in Kansas.

This package contains: (1) Instructions and Checklist for the Landlord’s Consent; (2) Information about the Landlord’s Consent; and (3) The Landlord’s Consent to Assignment (the “Consent”).

Frequently Asked Questions

A Landlord’s Consent to Lease Assignment is a legal document that allows a tenant to transfer their lease obligations to another individual, provided the landlord agrees to the assignment. This form ensures that the landlord acknowledges the new tenant and their responsibilities.

This form should be used when a tenant wishes to assign their lease to another person and the original lease requires landlord consent. It is important to use this document instead of a sublease agreement if no sublease is being created.

Yes, a landlord can refuse to consent to the lease assignment based on their discretion, provided they have valid reasons as outlined in the original lease agreement. However, they cannot refuse without a reasonable basis.

If the assignee fails to pay rent or fulfill other lease obligations, the original tenant may still be held responsible for those obligations unless the lease states otherwise. This is why it is crucial to understand the terms of the original lease.

No, this specific form is designed for use in Kansas. Other states may have different requirements or forms for lease assignments, so it is important to use the correct documentation based on state laws.

Is This Form Right For You?

Use This Form If:

  • Individuals who are planning to move out of their rental property may need this form to legally transfer their lease to another tenant. This ensures that the landlord acknowledges the new tenant and that the original tenant is not held liable for any future lease violations by the assignee.
  • Situations requiring a lease assignment often arise when a tenant receives a job offer in another city. In such cases, the tenant can use this form to obtain the landlord's consent to assign their lease, allowing them to relocate without breaching their rental agreement.
  • To comply with the terms of a lease that mandates landlord approval for any assignments, tenants must submit this form. This protects both the landlord’s interests and the tenant’s ability to transfer their lease obligations legally.
  • For those looking to share their rental space with a friend or family member, this form is essential. It allows the original tenant to assign their lease while ensuring that the landlord is informed and consents to the new arrangement.
  • Landlords may also utilize this form when reviewing lease assignments to ensure that the new tenant meets their rental criteria. This helps maintain the integrity of the rental property and ensures that all tenants are suitable.

Do Not Use If:

  • This form is not appropriate if a tenant is planning to sublease their rental unit, as a different form, the Landlord’s Consent to Sublease, should be used instead. Subleasing involves a different legal relationship between the original tenant, the subtenant, and the landlord.
  • If the original lease does not require landlord consent for lease assignments, this form is unnecessary. In such cases, tenants may proceed with the assignment without needing to notify the landlord.
  • This document should not be used if the landlord has explicitly stated they do not permit lease assignments in the lease agreement. Attempting to use this form in such a situation could lead to legal complications.
  • In instances where the tenant is facing eviction or legal action regarding their lease, this form should not be utilized. Legal counsel should be sought to address those specific issues instead.
  • If the tenant is assigning the lease to someone who does not meet the landlord's rental criteria, this form may not be appropriate. The landlord reserves the right to refuse consent based on the potential assignee's background or financial stability.
