How it works

STEP 1

The address, the dates, and the rent. Avouch turns your answers into the sublease agreement.

You sign first. Then the other person signs.

STEP 3

They open it, read it, and sign. Sent it to more than one person? The first to sign gets the place and the other links stop working.

STEP 4

In Tennessee, rent is taken from their bank and sent to yours every month, automatically. Move-in photos are saved with the agreement.

Common questions

Is an e-signed sublease agreement legally binding in Tennessee?

Generally, yes. Electronic signatures are legally recognized across the U.S. under the federal ESIGN Act and corresponding state electronic-transaction laws. Avouch signatures capture consent, signing intent, and attribution, and every executed agreement comes with a signing certificate.

Do I need my landlord's permission to sublet?

Usually, yes. Most leases require the landlord's written consent before subletting, and some buildings prohibit it. Read your lease first and get consent in writing. A sublease agreement documents the deal between you and your subletter; it does not override your lease.

What should the agreement include?

At minimum: both parties' names, the address, exact start and end dates, the rent amount and due dates, and both signatures. The guided setup walks you through each of these, and timestamped move-in photos document the condition of the place.

How much does it cost?

$5 once for the agreement, paid by the person leaving after the other person signs. Automatic monthly payments run in Tennessee, and each of you pays $2.50 per payment, nothing in a month when no money moves. Stripe's charges for moving the money come out of what the receiving person gets, at cost. Paying by card adds up to 3%. No subscription and no percentage of the rent.
