Who pays relet, lease-transfer, screening, and administration fees when a ASU student takes over another lease?

Start with the signed lease and current AZ tenant rules. Keep payments, condition evidence, notices and approvals in writing, and use ASU or local legal/tenant resources for a dispute instead of relying on a forum anecdote. A current ASU student housing demand signal observed 2026-07-06 confirms that this exact decision is being asked in this market.

- the signed lease and applicable state/local tenant rules
- written property approval for transfers, relets or subleases
- dated records of condition, payments, notices and communications
