The second landlord can rent the house, but it needs to meet the premise that the second landlord can sublet the house and obtain the consent of the lessor. According to Article 7 16 of the Civil Law, the lessee may sublease the leased property to a third party 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 718 stipulates that if the lessor knows or should know that the lessee subleases, and fails to raise any objection within six months, it shall be deemed that the lessor has agreed to sublease.

Does the second landlord need to sign a contract?

Second, the landlord should sign the contract. If the original landlord agrees, then the signed house lease contract is valid; Without the consent of the original landlord, the original landlord may terminate the lease contract. When signing a contract, we should pay attention to whether the original landlord agrees to let the second landlord rent the house, or sign the contract with the consent of the original landlord directly.
