Regional overview

New York law generally requires landlords to make reasonable efforts to re-rent after a tenant breaks a lease. You may remain liable for rent until a replacement tenant is found, minus what the landlord collects.

Subletting in New York depends on your lease terms and state tenant law. Many leases require written landlord consent before subletting or assigning.
