Augmented tenancy

[Julian]

A real estate leasing technique whereby the landlord and [tenant] cooperate to [sublet] a portion of the property or unit, and split the rent revenue (and responsibilities) of the sublease. Unlike traditional subletting, the tenant remains in the unit/property along with the subtenant. Unlike just getting a roommate, there is a hierarchy between the tenant and subtenant. The tenant assumes some (but not all) of [the landlords] responsibilities, effectively becoming more than just a tenant. He is an Augmented [Tenant]. Hence the term Augmented Tenancy.
