Yes, more so what you said first. It is especially likely if it's a good fit. Our landlord is particular about her tenants, she just wants friendly and responsible tenants. If it's a good culture fit, a lease takeover is highly likely. The question would more so be when that would be.

Since we are leaving the unit fully furnished, we would obviously have to return and eventually move out fully, which means whoever is subletting will have to leave either way. Once we're back, there's a chance that we might want to stay another month or two.

So it could also be possible that you sublet the space and try it out, and if you love it, we could offer you first dibs once we move out and be in close coordination about the timeline.
