Renters, apartment managers say subleases create problems
bv Michele Logan
and Raffy Walsh Kansan staff writers
Jack Brand, a representative for apartment managers and owners in Lawrence, said that many landlords did not like to sublease their apartments because it was too expensive for them to run a complete credit line to people who would be living in the apartments for only a few months.
"We've been trying to sublease forever, and nobody has called," Russell said. "If we can't sublease, we come up with the money ourselves."
But subleasing does not cause problems just for tenants. It can mean trouble for landlords as well.
Russell, Chicago senior, and her roommates need to sublease their three-bedroom apartment or pay $600 a month rent on the apartment, which none of them will be living in this summer.
Amy Russell and her two room mates are in a bind.
"As a matter of philosophy, the reason they're reluctant to let a person out of a contract is because of the other person. He could check out the other person," he said.
Brand also said that different apartment complexes had different subleasing policies.
Marilyn Walker, manager of Birchwood Apartments, 1300 Massachusetts St., and a 10-apartment complex at 18th and Ohio streets, said she plans her apartments' privacy policy here one of the more lenient in Lawrence.
Walker said that the tenant was primarily responsible for finding a sublease but "I keep my eyes and ears on my tenants as out as much as possible."
She said that tenants weren't charged a subleasing fee because subleasing wasn't an inconvenience to her.
According to Walker's policy, a subsumesheet is the remainder of the present tenant's lease and must be charged the monthly rent as a security deposit
The original tenant's security deposit is returned after the original lease has expired and the sublease has vacated the apartment.
A check-out is completed with the original tenant and a check-in is completed with the sublessee.
The sublesses is responsible for damage to the apartment, but if he refuses to pay, the damages are assessed to the original tenant. The
We've had about 10 phone calls, and some people were supposed to show up to look at the apartment, but they never did. So now we're back to the drawing board.'

same applies if the sublessee refuses to pay rent.
"I try to be as flexible as possible and whatever the original leaseholder needs. I try to deliver." she said.
Walker said that most tenants stayed during the summer months but that some left because they were not attending summer school or because they went home to see their friends and to find summer employment.
Sublessees tough to find
Lorri Arnold, Russell junior, is trying to sublease her apartment in Walker's complex. She is having a difficult time, not with management, but with lack of interest from potential renters.
"We've had about 10 phone calls, and some people were supposed to show up to look at the apartment, but they never did," Armhold said. "So now we're back to the drawing board."
Baha Safi, general manager of Sunrise Apartments, 837 Michigan St. said that tenants could sublease the rooms received management's permission.
However, Safari does not get involved in deciding the terms of a subleasing agreement, such as when he is required to be in and how much rent he will pay.
Safadi said that the original tenants were responsible for keeping the lease agreement.
When subleasing an apartment, the new tenants and the original tenants sign an agreement, which includes a deposit, a contract, an agreement, and a copy of the lease.
Extra fees
If all tenants vacate the apartment, there is a $75 subleasing fee, he said. If one tenant from the original lease remains, no subleasing fee is
"Tenants are responsible for the
lease until it expires," Safadi said. "Fifteen to 20 percent of our tenants sublease for the summertime."
Safari said that the main problem with subleasing was that management did not always check credit cards of the subleasees the subleasees was only temporary.
Ricky Pierson, manager of Trailridge Apartment, 2500 W. Sixth St., said that either the tenant or the management could find a sublease but that final approval was up to the management.
The fee is $200, which covers advertising in the newspaper and extra bookwork
The tenant and manager complete a check-out, a list of what is wrong with the apartment, before the sublessee moves in.
If damage is incurred, money is deducted from the original tenant's security deposit. Then the manager and the sublesssee complete a check-in, a list of what is wrong with the apartment before moving in, so that he's not responsible for any damages that exist when he moves in.
If the sublessee refuses to pay for any damages or does not pay rent, then the original tenant is responsible for paying any outstanding bills.
The tenants do not receive their security deposit until the contract has expired.
If the sublessee wants a contract of his own, without the original tenant's name on it, then he must put down a security deposit of one month's rent.
The apartment complex where Russell lives is owned by individual investors. She said they asked the owners for help in subleasing their apartment but the owners said that it would improve their policy to assist in subleasing.
If any damages occur during the sublease's contract, he's responsible and the money is deducted from his security deposit.
The sublesee's name is added to the original contract, along with the other tenants' names.
Some of the hassles of subleasing involve the added expense incurred by the tenant while trying to find a subsleaze.
Amy Russell and her roommates placed an ad in the Kansan and posted signs in sorority houses and in apartment buildings building to advertise their apartment.
"They said it was our responsibility since we signed a lease for 12 months." Russell said.
"We don't want to have to (negotiate a price), but it might come down to that."
