Can I sublet my Housing NZ property?

Question

Accepted Answer

Social housing tenancy agreements normally say that you aren’t allowed to sublet, but you should check your agreement. You may be allowed boarders, as long as you don’t have more people living in the house than the tenancy agreement allows. If your tenancy agreement doesn’t say anything about subletting, then you can sublet *if* you get the landlord’s written permission. Your landlord can’t refuse permission unreasonably.
