Best Answer

An individual can sign as many as they wish. But they are going to have to show that they can cover the costs.

It's not illegal but most people advise against it, as that means you are responsible for twice as much money. You could wind up losing one or both deposits because you will not be living in both places at the same time.

Those looking for affordable housing should consider sub-leasing from a person who already owns the unit. The nice thing about sub-leasing is that you are often dealing with a person who has an incentive to give you a good deal. Sub-leases occur when a person is moving or they need to have someone fill in their spot. Otherwise, they would have to pay two rents in many instances. This gives you the leverage and can lead to affordable housing in an apartment or home that might have otherwise cost much more than it does. Think about this if affordable housing is your goal.
