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 New Hampshire.

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 to another individual with the landlord's approval. It ensures that the landlord acknowledges the new tenant and outlines any continuing responsibilities of the original tenant.

This form should be used when a tenant wishes to assign their lease to another party and there is no separate sublease agreement in place. It is important to ensure that the landlord consents to the assignment to avoid any lease violations.

If the new tenant (assignee) fails to fulfill their rental obligations, the original tenant may still be held responsible for the lease terms, depending on the original lease agreement. This document does not absolve the original tenant of their obligations.

No, this form should not be used if there is a separate sublease agreement. In such cases, you should use the Landlord’s Consent to Sublease instead.

This specific form is tailored for use in New Hampshire. If you are in another state, you should consult local laws and use a form that complies with that jurisdiction's requirements.

Is This Form Right For You?

Use This Form If:

  • Individuals who are currently renting a property and wish to transfer their lease to another party will require this form. It ensures that the landlord acknowledges and approves the new tenant, thereby protecting the original tenant's interests.
  • Situations requiring a lease assignment often arise when a tenant needs to relocate for work or personal reasons. This document provides the necessary legal consent from the landlord, allowing the tenant to assign their lease without breaching the original contract.
  • For those managing rental properties, having a standardized form for lease assignments is essential. This document simplifies the process of approving new tenants and ensures compliance with the terms of the original lease agreement.
  • Landlords may need this form when a current tenant requests to assign their lease to a new tenant. By providing consent through this document, landlords can maintain control over who occupies their property while ensuring that the original tenant remains liable for the lease.
  • In cases where a tenant is unable to fulfill their lease obligations due to unforeseen circumstances, this form allows them to legally assign their lease to someone else. This helps both the tenant and the landlord to avoid potential financial losses.

Do Not Use If:

  • This form is not appropriate if there is an existing sublease agreement in place. In such cases, a different consent form specifically for subleases should be utilized to ensure compliance with the lease terms.
  • If the original lease explicitly prohibits assignments without landlord consent, this form cannot be used unless the landlord agrees to modify the lease terms. Always check the original lease for specific clauses regarding assignments.
  • In situations where the tenant has already assigned the lease without prior consent, using this form retroactively will not resolve any lease violations that may have occurred. Legal advice may be necessary in such cases.
  • This form should not be used if the new tenant does not meet the landlord's screening criteria or if the landlord has valid reasons to deny the assignment. Always ensure that the new tenant is acceptable to the landlord.
  • If the landlord is unwilling to consent to the lease assignment, this form cannot be used. The tenant must seek alternative solutions, such as negotiating with the landlord or considering other options.
