As a tenant, you may need to register at the property, especially if you are a student or professional expatriate in a foreign country.

This criterion does not appear in the search filters. Please note that registration is only possible if you are staying at the property for a certain period of time. If you need to register at the property, we suggest you seek advice directly from your local Town Hall before making a booking request or visit.

Who will I share the property with?

None in the case of renting out an internal flat.
In the case of renting out a room: unfortunately, due to GDPR requirements we are unable to share specific information about the other tenants in the property.

What are the booking costs?

PMG charges a service fee which is proportional to the cost of the fee for the number of months booked. To simulate the booking cost, simply click on "Rent now" inside the ad and enter the check in and check out dates. The system will automatically simulate the prices.
In addition to the booking costs, you can add specific costs for the registration of the contract, cleaning and sanitation. You can check for these additional costs in the ad description.

Do I have to pay a deposit?

When booking, the amounts to be paid are: one month's rent (which will be paid into the properties' landlord 48h after check in) + PMG commission. Once this amount is paid, the property will be reserved.

What is monthly cost of utilities?

This information can be found in the Prices and availability section of each listing. For some listings utilities are included in the rental price for others they are excluded.
For some properties utilities are included but up to a maximum monthly cap, this information will be present in the listing description or can be requested from our customer service team (e.g. utilities included up to a maximum of €150/month).

1. Submit your rental request by clicking on "Rent Now" for the desired property by entering the preferred period of stay, payment method, and the required information and documents.

If you wish to stay in the property after your rental agreement has expired, you will need to enter a new booking request online, as this will be considered as a new rental. We recommend that you do this quickly to avoid losing your rental property.

Where & how can I check the availability of the property?

We include this information on every property advert, and you only need to look at the 'Prices and availability' section for more details.
In addition, landlords may also set additional minimum and maximum stay rules. Some properties will have a 'gap' rule, which means that the landlord will only accept bookings with a transfer within a certain date range. For this reason, although it is available when selecting dates in the calendar, the system does not offer exit dates in advance.
Owners operate in this way to avoid the property remaining empty for long periods between two bookings. Unfortunately this is a non-negotiable policy. For this reason, you can only book within the time period set by the landlord.

What are the house rules?

Each property listing includes a set of house rules that are non-negotiable and set by the landlord.
- Smoking Allowed: Indicates whether or not smoking is permitted on the property. It is highly recommended that you follow this rule, otherwise you risk losing the security deposit.
- Pets Allowed: This will indicate if the landlord will allow pets to enter the property, it is recommended that you add information about your pet in the notes to your booking request so that the landlord is informed in advance.
- Overnight Guests: Most owners do not allow guests to stay in shared properties, so please check if this is allowed or if the landlord will charge a supplement.
- Couples allowed: Room owners do not allow couples inside the room.

Is there any extra booking costs?

As we work with both property managers and private owners, you may find administration fees in some listings. These are fees that are charged by property managers to cover administrative costs, including, but not limited to, contract registration, inventory checks, reference checks, cleaning and sanitation costs.
If your listing contains an administrative fee, you will find information about this in the Pricing and Availability section of the listing.
These costs are NOT included in the PMG commission and will be payable directly to the landlord after the booking.

Can I see the lease first?

We are not part of this rental contract. Sometimes you will need your contract in advance for visa purposes, or to set up bills or direct debits. Once the landlord accepts your booking request, you will receive the landlord's contact details. We recommend that you ask the landlord to send you a copy of the contract directly.
Each landlord will have their own contract and clauses, so we do not have a template of specific information to provide you with in advance.
