Does The Coda allow subleasing?

No. The Coda does not allow for subleasing or a sublet of a leased apartment. The standard definition of a sublease is that the lease remains in the name of the original lessee and the person subleasing leases from that person. The onus of payments, repairs and anything else that is outlined in the originally signed lease would remain the responsibility of the original lessee. For example, if the person subleasing damages the property the original lessee would be the party responsible for the cost of the repairs.
What our off campus apartments in Syracuse offers is a much better solution. Once a qualified replacement is found by the terminating tenant, the leasing process and all payments are made by the replacement tenant, the originally signed lease is terminated hence removing all responsibility of the original tenant.
