What is a deed of variation?Valuable life advice: never play chicken with a lion...the lion will ALWAYS win!:eek:0

OP.
What he really needs is a seperate contract with the ex. He moves out, she moves her ex in, but they cover the rent.
A contract between him and them both.
The LL can still chase your son, but he can then legally chase both of them.0 -

It's a legal document where parties agree to amend the terms of a contract. In this case, the tenancy."Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance" - Confucius0 -

If not sure that sounds like a good idea. Isn't that subletting? And it doesn't actually end the LL's right to collect rent off the departing tenant."Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance" - Confucius0 -

No it's not subletting.
Subletting: letting out the whole property to a new person(s), becoming their landlord.
This is at best the ex taking in a lodger, (though we know a partner cant be a lodger - presumebly if its her ex, he wont be an ex for long), in which case he would be just a guest ( a licence to occupy - maybe).
No it doesnt end the LLS right to collect from the OP. The OP though could then collect the same from them.
Unless the LL agrees there's nothing the OP can do to end his own liability to the LL0 -
Sorry - that should read 'Deed of Assignment' as per option 6 in post 7.willeynotwiley wrote: »What is a deed of variation?
(One varies the terms of an original contract, the other assigns an original contract from one (or more) person to another/others.)0
