Everybody who owns a property or is allowed to have a subcontract to rent out the appartment, can display properties on Kurzzeitwohnen.

Every fully furnished flat from single bedrooms to luxury apartments or holiday apartments in and around Austria are ideal when they are ready-furnished to just move in or are available for a certain period of time.

Besides having a ready for occupancy furnishment it should have a full equipped kitchen with tableware, cutlery, pots and pans, water heater, coffee machine, microwave etc. Ideal would be to offer bed sheets, towels, vacuum cleaner and if possible a place to do laundry.

Most important is for tenants to have internet which seems to be a big decision criterion.

What can increase enquiries as well is a TV, cable TV and a hi-fi system.

Important is that the tenants expect to move into the displayed property. The pictures should always be up to date.

Present your apartment in the nicest way, look out for tidiness, cleanness and fresh made beds. Avoid pictures of private items, place some flowers nicely, make it look as welcoming as possible.

Pictures in horizontal format are better displayed. For each of your properties you can upload up to 8 pictures.

The prices are a constitution of size, location, equipment, age and general condition of the property, as well as if there is a parking lot or garage available.

Another factor are the surroundings of the property, shops and restaurants and a proper connection to the public traffic.

Most enquiries are made by companies or business individuals who plan to stay for a few weeks or months in a different city for a project or transfer. People ask for apartments that vary in price and sizes and location. Most of the tenants are people who are specialized in their profession and work for international companies. We also accommodate private indviduals or tourists who are planning to have a longer stay in Austria. Most of the tenants are from German-speaking countries and the rest from all around the world.

No, we do not charge landlords. We have a free usage of our website and do not set terms or conditions for you.

The landlords decide who is allowed to move in. Via e-mail you will receive non-binding enquiries that are being made by interested parties on Kurzzeitwohnen.

You yourself decide if you take a deposit and how much it should be. We recommend a deposit adapted to your furnishing (most landlords take a one month rent) to ensure potential damage. 

The procedure should be as smooth as possible and for you time saving. Some tenants make a bank transfer, some landlords take cash or make creditcard back up.

The obligation to register is up to the tenant. As landlord you have the obligation according to the law ( Law of registration ) to inform your tenant to fill in the paper of registrations  . Be aware that the tenant indicates the residence as his second.

The tenant is liable for any damage in the property and on the furnishment that happens during his/her stay and has to bear the costs.
Removal, repair and replacement are both up to the landlord. It is the purpose of the deposit to cover that damage.
An insurance covers some of the damage but might not pay for all the expenses. We recommend to contact your insurance consultant.
To avoid damage, you can point out sources of danger and hand over a inventory list.
