beach80, I'd be curious to see what that looks like!

Look at padmapper.com to see what's offered in means of subletting in your area. With that in mind what you leave should really depend on what you need.

If you need your furniture, take it. If not, leave it, because it makes things way easier on the subleter (at least for college students). If you have roommates that will still be there when you're gone I'd leave the tv and any furniture, but definitely don't leave anything you'll mind getting dinged a little bit. You can mention in your add that you're willing to leave dishware (unless you need it, then just take it with you) and say you'll discuss details upon contact. My roommates leave all their furniture and remove anything personal from their bedrooms.

Sometimes the subletter pays your landlord, so it would be the same rent you're charged. If they're paying you, and you're charging more than you're charged in rent, that could be looked at as housing fraud, so be careful.
