Your lease most likely has a provision against "subletting" your apartment. Any changes in renters must be approved by the landlord, and that includes adding or removing names off the lease.

The landlord decides "who" rents from them ... not the tenant.

You need to review your original lease for terms and clauses. The Leasor needs to receive a written notice to quit your lease from you, regardless of reasons to terminate your agreement. This way you will not end up with any surprise judgments for rents that the remaining leasee does not pay.

If you cosigned a rental lease in February but the renters cannot move in until May is there any way to get your name off the lease if you no longer wish to be a cosigner?

As a contract, a lease is binding on the parties under its terms, and there may be specific words about what to do in this situation, but usually you can get out only if everyone else agrees to start over. In general: If you cosigned then you are a partner with all the other cosigners (for the purpose of paying rent) until they agree to carry your portion of the burden and the landlord agrees to release you from your obligation (accepting a new agreement with the remaining cosigners). First you should get agreement from your partners (to release you) and then they can present their new offer to the landlord, perhaps with a substitute for you.


If you cosigned on a year lease on an apartment for your son can the apartment hold you responsible when the lease is up if he doesn't pay his rent?

Yes. anytime you co-sign a lease you are 100% responsible not only for the money of rent but 100% of all other terms. Such as damage, late fees, early termination fees, court costs, etc. for the full duration of the family members tenant status. In a lease or month-to-month the co-signer remains responsible until the tenant is no longer on property. If the co-signer wants to be relieved of future liability, then the co-signer should send a written notice to the landlord, before the lease renews or goes month-to-month, requesting he/she to be removed from the agreement as a co-signer. I would imagine the terms and rules would still apply, even though the lease expired and is now month-to-month. So write a letter and give notice that you are ending your arrangement.

Can an apartment complex hurt your credit by having late payments?

Please allow me to confirm that it CAN effect your credit. The apartment community typically, but not always, turns the accounts over to a debt collection agency. Once the agency has the account, they start sending letters, calling etc. The account is typically reported to the bureaus between 90-120 days after placement. The reporting is the first piece of leverage to get a debtor to pay. The goal is to get the money, not to prevent you from opening up an account at Best Buy. If you pay the collection agency quickly, you won't have a mark on your credit at all. You might even be able to pay a settlement rather than a full amount. Evictions however are reported independently through the county. Evictions by the way, don't drop off after 7 years, depending on the state, they can last a lot longer depending on the state. The FCRA (fair credit reporting act) says that an item on your credit can stay for 7 years from the date the debt was incurred OR the last payment date.
