Most mortgage companies don't allow for subleasing or renting because they have different mortgages for rental properties where the interest rate is generally slightly higher. But it's not like they do bed checks and people can have multiple homes so there is nothing strange if you were to move elsewhere and have them change your address to a new location and still be paying the loan on that property.
