Looking to rent out a property around $3K/month. A potential applicant told me they would like to sublet one of the rooms. I’m not against it but told them I may increase rent amount if so. I’m thinking by $250. Does this sound reasonable? Both for me to agree for them to sublet, and for the increased rent amount.

Do you get to credit check the sublessee? What happens if they turn out to be a squatter- will your tenant help with eviction expenses?

Is he subletting to a roommate? Or is he doing a short term or mid term rental by the room?

I wouldn’t charge extra, but I would require that anyone staying at least 30 days is on the lease and does a background check. I wouldn’t allow short term rentals as a sublet.

I’d rather someone be honest with me and tell me who’s occupying the house than not tell me and hoa use damage. If having roommates / subletting allows them to afford the rent, and the other tenant has verifiable income, that’s actually less risky for you
