• Subleases are quick and flexible, often with motivated sub-lessors.
• Subleased space usually comes as-is and might not be customizable.
• Subleases are often short-term, requiring future planning.
• Discounted rates in subleases may lead to significant increases when the lease ends.

At other times, tenants are drawn to subtenancy because it usually offers opportunities to get space at a discount.
