Even though your last Calne conveyancing solicitor is not available you can check your lease to check if you are permitted to let out the property. The accepted inference is that if the deeds are silent, subletting is allowed. Quite often there is a prerequisite that you need to seek permission via your landlord or some other party before subletting. The net result is that you cannot sublet in the absence of prior consent.
