Is it a responsibility to rent a property in groups?

Legal analysis: it is illegal to have responsibility, and "group rent" is not a strict legal concept. Generally speaking, it refers to the rental phenomenon that the owner or user of a house divides the house into multiple independent rooms by changing the building structure and layout, and then rents out each independent room to many people.

Legal basis: Civil Code of People's Republic of China (PRC).

Article 716 The lessee may sublease the lease item to a third person with the consent of the lessor. If the lessee sublets, the lease contract between the lessee and the lessor shall remain valid; If a third party causes losses to the lease item, the lessee shall compensate for the losses.

If the lessee sublets without the consent of the lessor, the lessor may terminate the contract.

Article 717 Where the lessee subleases the lease item to a third person with the consent of the lessor, if the sublease term exceeds the remaining lease term of the lessee, the agreement beyond the lease term is not legally binding on the lessor, unless otherwise agreed by the lessor and the lessee.

Article 718 Where the lessor knew or should have known about the sublease, and did not raise any objection within six months, it shall be deemed that the lessor agreed to sublease.
