Etymology
The term 'sublease' originated from the prefix 'sub-', which means 'under' or 'below', combined with the word 'lease', derived from the Old French 'laisser' which means 'to let'. 'Sublease' has been used in legal and property contexts since the 17th century, when formal leasing agreements began to emerge as common practice. It reflects a system where the original tenant can allow another party to occupy the property, while maintaining their own obligations to the landlord. The process is governed by various laws and regulations, which can vary by jurisdiction, ensuring that both parties are protected in the transaction.
