I can't think of why not, if he's willing to take over the rent payments. Talk with your landlord about it. Perhaps when your lease is up your SO can sign the new one.

If you are talking about the lease that you currently have you would need to speak to your landlord regarding this. You can not sublet the apartment that is not allowed. ( meaning you can your significant other can not make a lease between yourselves saying that he/she takes over your lease, The best thing to do is go to the management company explain the situation. Tell them that you have someone willing to take over the lease or sign a new lease. They of course will have to do a credit check on him/her and a background check. If they approve him/her they will remove your name from the lease and create a new lease in his/her name.

Talk to your land lord and ask them "hypothetically" how they would like to handle this: 1) wait until the lease expires or 2) anytime. There might be a problem if the significant other has credit problems, so you might scope that out first.

Rephrase your question please. It is not clear.
