My husbands grandmother has let the property on my mother in laws name, they do have the will as well. However my husbands uncle has put forward a property case on them challenging the will. My mother in law has been staying in the property for 42 years now and she has been paying the rent. We now want to sublet the property since she is retired and need money for maintenance can we do that?

A.Dear Client,

Based on the information provided, it seems that your mother-in-law does not have any legal ownership or title to the property where she currently resides as a tenant. Therefore, without ownership rights, she cannot establish a tenancy agreement or sub-lease any part of the property to others.

A.Dear Client,
From the contents of the query, it appears that your mother-in-law does not possess any title or ownership of the property where she is now residing as a tenant paying the rent. So, in the absence of title or ownership of the property, your mother-in-law being a tenant cannot create a tenancy on the same property or sub-let a part of the property to others.
