Property owners prefer to rent their homes on a short-term basis (6 months to 1 year) so they can increase the rent when the contract expires. However, the prices of short-term contracts (not AirBnB or hotels) are regulated by law. In the resources available on this site, you can find information about the different types of contracts in Italy, how to verify the price, and what to do if the landlord has made an agreement with you at an irregular rate.

According to our survey, about 63% of students have changed residences at least once during their studies. Nearly half of these changes were due to contract non-renewal.
