Right to Sublet

North Carolina law doesn’t specifically allow or ban subletting. Whether a tenant can sublet depends on the lease, which often requires the landlord’s approval. Tenants should check their North Carolina sublease agreement template lease before subletting. If subletting is not allowed, you will need to get written permission from your landlord with the Landlord Consent Form.
