Sublet?
Hi Everyone!
Has anyone been successful in subletting their place? My employers are moving me to corporate housing now that a flat has become available. This is fabulous because I've had to pay extra every month to stay where I am now. The only thing is I had to sign a one-year lease in April. The agent told me they would keep all the checks and the damage deposit if I break the lease. They did say they would try to find someone else but...
Anyway so I was curious if anyone has been able to sublet?
Suggestions?
Thanks!
Beela,
The agent? How about the owner??
Maybe the agent is subletting to you?
The other day the agent himself actually suggested I could find someone else and they would be fine with that.

Beela,as bleu rightly stated,weather or not a good few QL'ers have sublet or live in a sublet premises themselves...point it's ILLEGAL...if you're busted,action will be taken against you,as in a fine or jail term or both,if you have any problems with your landlord,neighbours,whatever,you can't go to the authorities because,as stated above,they'll bust you,if God forbid,there's a robbery or something,again same story,basically you will have no rights as a tenant as the authorities will rightly state that you were already in breach of the law...plenty of studios/1 beds available on the market now & rents are way lower than before,add a couple of 100 if even to what you're paying to sublet & get your own place,legal,no hassle,no worries...good luck...
It's illegal.
I didn't know there was a rental commission. Do you know if anyone has had success with them? I'm bad with directions...do you have a general idea of where they are?
Thanks!

Check with the Rental commission in Mansoura to see what your options are - take a copy of your lease.
