SUBLEASING WITH GOGOPHER

How It Works

Step 1: Have your prospective sublessee fill out the short info form on this page. Once we get it, we’ll send them a full rental application.

Step 2: Prospective sublessee completes the rental application.

Step 3: All original leaseholders must sign the Subleasing Addendum.

Step 4: Email everything to rent@gogopherdinkytown.com.

Step 5: When we approve, you’ll hear back from us — only then can the sublessee move in. (Important: don’t turn over keys before approval.)

What You Should Know

• There’s a $250 fee per sublease.
• You (the original leaseholder) are still responsible for rent and any damage until your lease officially ends. That means choosing a good sublessee is key.
• The security deposit stays in your name. It will be released 21 days after your lease ends (minus any deductions for damage/unpaid charges). You may want to collect a deposit from your sublessee.
• You pay rent until your lease expires — even if someone else is living there.

Tips for Picking a Great Sublessee

• Look for someone who’s responsible (past landlord or roommate references help).
• Be very clear about expectations: cleaning, shared spaces, utilities, damages.
• Put everything in writing. Get the Subleasing Addendum signed before move-in.
• Be sure to collect a deposit or other guarantee if possible.
