Hi everyone.
I live in a rent stablized apartment. I am a co-tenant on the lease along with one other co-tenant.
Am I legally able to move out of the apartment, leaving the remaining co-tenant as the soley remaining tenant, so long as my co-tenant agrees and has the ability to pay the rent payments?
Will the remaining co-tenant get evicted if I vacate?
Also, if I leave, is the remaining co-tenant then entitled to bringing in a roommate under the roommate clause? If so, how do I provide proof to the landlord that I have vacated the premises and the remaining roommate is continuing to live there as her primary residence?
Are both co-tenants required to occupy the apartment as their primary residence? It is not clear in my lease, and I have not found any answers online.
Thanks for your help!
