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 Minnesota.

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 party, with the landlord's approval. This ensures that the landlord is aware of the new tenant and agrees to the assignment.

You should use this form when you want to assign your lease to another tenant and your original lease requires landlord consent. It is important to ensure that all parties are in agreement to avoid any legal issues.

If the new tenant (assignee) fails to pay rent, the original tenant may still be held responsible for the lease obligations, depending on the terms of the original lease. This form does not absolve the original tenant of their responsibilities.

No, this form is specifically designed for use in Minnesota. Different states may have different requirements and forms for lease assignments.

No, if you have a separate sublease agreement, you should use the Landlord’s Consent to Sublease instead. This form is specifically for lease assignments and should not be used interchangeably with subleases.

Is This Form Right For You?

Use This Form If:

  • Individuals who are renting a property may need this form when they wish to transfer their lease to another tenant. This document ensures that the landlord acknowledges and approves the assignment, protecting both the original tenant and the new tenant's rights.
  • Situations requiring a lease assignment often arise when a tenant needs to relocate for work or personal reasons. By using this form, the original tenant can formally request the landlord's consent, allowing for a smooth transition without breaching the lease agreement.
  • To comply with the terms of a lease that mandates landlord approval for assignments, tenants must utilize this form. It serves as a legal safeguard, ensuring that the landlord is aware of and agrees to the new tenant taking over the lease responsibilities.
  • For those involved in property management, this form is essential when handling tenant requests for lease assignments. It provides a clear record of the landlord's consent, which can help avoid potential disputes regarding lease obligations in the future.
  • Landlords may find this form useful when they need to formalize their approval of a lease assignment. By documenting their consent, landlords can maintain control over who occupies their property while ensuring compliance with existing lease terms.

Do Not Use If:

  • This form is not appropriate if there is a separate sublease agreement in place. In such cases, the landlord's consent should be documented using a specific sublease consent form to avoid confusion.
  • If the original lease does not require landlord consent for assignments, using this form is unnecessary. Tenants should review their lease terms to determine if consent is needed.
  • Landlords should not use this form if they have already denied a tenant's request for an assignment. Once consent is denied, the tenant must adhere to the original lease terms without modification.
  • In situations where the tenant is in violation of the lease terms, this form should not be used. The landlord may need to address the violation before considering any lease assignment.
  • This form is not suitable for use in states other than Minnesota, as legal requirements and forms may vary significantly across jurisdictions.
