My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: California
Hello everyone. A retired apartment owner/friend of mine keeps telling me that CA state law requires all tenants to be allowed to sublet their apartments. However, in my lease it specifically states that subletting is not allowed unless we are replacing a roommate. I also checked on my city's rent stabilization board and they confirmed that if a landlord forbids subletting in the lease then it is not allowed.
So who is correct??
