I am looking at apartments in NYC and will be subleasing a room in an apartment with other tenants who have been there a while. I am dealing with the tenants themselves and not the landlord.

I am not sure whether they have a lease drawn up or not - should I take my own generic form with me when I go to meet them/possibly rent it?

Anyone have suggestions for where to find generic forms like that?

The only reason I worry about it is that they want a security deposit, and without a contract of some sort I don't have any documentation of having given them a deposit.

Thanks for any tips!
