How do you transfer an apartment lease in Da Nang to another tenant, and what if the landlord asks you to move out temporarily?
Based on 1 discussion with 2 participants · Last activity: 16 days ago
TL;DR
In Da Nang, lease transfers usually require the landlord’s approval, and the deposit handover should be documented in writing. If your rental contract does not include a clause allowing temporary move-out for repairs or inspections, the landlord generally cannot force you to leave unilaterally.

If the landlord asks you to vacate the apartment temporarily, check the lease first. If the contract has no clause covering repairs, inspections, or temporary relocation, the landlord usually cannot impose that move on their own.

In practice, the most workable option is usually a negotiated solution: either the landlord provides alternative accommodation during the work without making your terms worse, or you move out completely and get your deposit back in full.

If you agree to move or hand over the apartment, do not rely on verbal promises about your belongings. Make a written inventory and storage agreement, or move your items to the new place right away.

A typical lease-transfer setup is that you find a replacement tenant for the remaining term, the landlord approves them, and only then do you work out how the rent payments and deposit will be transferred.

The key issue in a lease transfer is the deposit. It is safest to document in writing exactly who refunds it and when: whether the new tenant pays you directly, the landlord returns it after handover, or another agreed method is used.
