Post new question Related posts: Roommate with bad credit My daughter was in an appartment with 3 other girls. They have a signed lease that is good until Aug 31. My daughter has moved out because she relocated for a job. One of the roommates tld her when she moved that she would sue her if she subletted her room. My daughter agreed not to and has been paying her portion of the rent since she left in Feb. She is now being told from the other 2 roommates that they have a friend they want to move in and let sublett. My Daughter is fine with this and has had a contract drawn up for the new subletter with an attachment that all 3 roommates are ok with her mving in. The one roommate says she won’t sign it. My daughter is worried because of previous threats that if she does not sign it, it could be trouble for her in the future. My daughter said told them if all 3 don’t sign she will not sublett the room. They say they are moving her in anyway and she doesn’t have the right to stop them. What are my daughters rights in this case? roommate backing out on verbal lease agreement Can roommate evict me? My roommate rejects every subletter I propose My daughter signed a lease with a friend. Due to Friends activities the golden roommate turned into a major roommate problem. My daughter has moved out and we are working with realtor/landlord to sublet. Problem: Friend has someone living in appartemnet now. My daughters personal affects/room have been moved around and used. We notified realtor but even though it is against lease to have anyone else living there they are not willing to do anything. House is a mess so tyring to sublet is impossible. Originally posted 2008-03-26 06:31:10.

Report Violation

Your daughter has right to remove her belongings. I would suggest that you immediately go over to the unit and move her personal belongings out. If you have a problem, call the local police department and they will escort you while your daughter moves.

Report Violation

If it were me, I would try to get the person that moved in to take over the lease. If they don’t, I would start the eviction process. (most likely your roommate has breached the contract if they allowed someone to live there without signing a lease)
