My daughter is a student at Indiana University and is in her first year renting a three bedroom apartment with two roommates. As things usually happen, she has had a falling out with the others. They want to move out next year and so my daughter has lined up new roommates. She currently is on a one year lease, ending in August. All three parties signed the lease.
Today she came across an advertisement that one of her roommates has placed to sublet the roommates' room in the apartment. Subletting is not allowed under the terms of the lease. She talked to her roommate this evening and was informed that the roommate does not want to pay rent for the summer if she is not going to be living there. Will the roommate be able to get permission from the management company to sublet her room if my daughter objects to it? If the roommate is able to gain permission, does my daughter have no say in who the roommate will be?
My daughter will probably not be there most of the summer, but all of the furniture in the living room belongs to her, and we don't feel that we should have to make other arrangements (storage room) or risk damage to her belongings that might be caused by someone she does not know.
I appreciate any advice anyone can offer to us. If I am leaving out any needed information, please let me know and I will respond as soon as possible.
