What does SUBLET mean in Scrabble?
verb
To rent out to someone else a property that you yourself are renting.
When a tenant sublets a flat, the original lease stays in force and the new occupant pays the tenant instead of the landlord. Many leases forbid it without written permission, so the practice can lead to trouble if it is done quietly. The word also applies to contracts: a builder may sublet part of a job to a specialist firm. As a noun it names the arrangement itself, such as a summer sublet.
