We pay the agreed rent and handle property management in a free, contractual and legally compliant framework. We list the apartment on short-stay platforms such as Airbnb or Booking.
Our real-estate agency status provides legal and operational expertise that has supported our growth since 2022.
Leazly is for people with mobility projects requiring them to leave their home for more than 2 weeks. The service covers both tenants and owners within Paris.
Leazly exists to encourage mobility by removing the housing constraint, while making it easy to come home again. We are ambassadors of a world on the move and help everyone pursue mobility dreams through our service. We commit to a transparent, free service with your rent and charges paid monthly every month — that is our strength and what has earned us several awards.
Our mobility commitment extends to our partners. Working with Paris schools and universities, we support students — a group that often struggles to seize mobility opportunities. Helping them take internships, Erasmus, language stays or humanitarian trips means a future filled with enriching experiences.
Today we extend that commitment to anyone with opportunities to seize, lifting the burden of paying rent for an empty home.
Our agency status ensures a legally compliant service. You meet our experts during the home visit and check-in/out.
Unlike other players, we guarantee income regardless of occupancy and manage everything for free. You leave with peace of mind and receive your rent every month.
Your home remains primarily covered by the occupant's tenant insurance, and where applicable by landlord (PNO) insurance.
Leazly also maintains professional insurance linked to operations during rental periods. Coverage remains subject to policy limits, deductibles and exclusions.
As a tenant you cannot receive more than your rent, and you cannot combine APL with rent paid by a third party. To stay legal, we offer two options:
– Stop your APL: once we receive proof of suspension, you receive exactly your rent amount.
– Keep them: we pay your rent minus the APL amount. In that case we ask for a document proving your APL amount.
We recommend starting at least 2 weeks before your departure. For last-minute departures, contact us — full rent guarantee may not be possible on very short notice.
For rushed departures we share subletting income for the first 2 weeks (50/50), then pay 100% of rent and charges beyond that, as agreed in the civil lease.
If your travel dates are not set yet, you can indicate that when filling in the form. You can provide a more precise period at any time before or during your trip.
Flexibility matters to us as much as to you — whether extending or shortening the management period, we adapt to your plans. Note that once you have left, you can extend your absence but not shorten it.
We cannot accept a home if we do not obtain landlord approval for subletting, as our offer would then fall outside the legal framework.
We may also decline a home that does not meet our criteria (location, size, layout, etc.). We usually respond within the day and within 7 business days at most.
To validate the civil lease authorising us to manage your home during your absence, we ask for a few supporting documents.
Tenants: lease or rent receipt, ID, bank details, subletting authorisation.
Owners: property tax / housing tax, ID, bank details.
After the visit, if everything works for you, we sign a civil lease together. It authorises us to manage your home for the duration of your absence. This legal contract is drafted by a lawyer and granted through our real-estate agency status.
Before the photographer visit, our team sends a short guide with tips to prepare your home.
Each room must be photographed to show the space clearly. The home should be as tidy as possible.
Our team handles all management — you do nothing: listing, keys, linen, cleaning, maintenance…
While you're away, your home is listed on short-stay platforms for business travellers and tourists. We vet guests, take a deposit, verify identity and carry out regular visits.
When you leave we need 3 key sets — for cleaners and future sub-tenants. We recommend a locksmith if you don't have enough; our team can suggest a partner.
We pay your rent to your personal account each month and you continue paying your landlord as before. Nothing changes for them or for you. Even if they know about the arrangement, we do not interact with your landlord during the Leazly contract.
After submitting the form and until the contract is signed, you can withdraw from the Leazly offer.
Once signed, you are committed for at least the contract duration. In case of force majeure, we can cancel the contract (and existing bookings) but cancellation fees and compensation for losses are at your expense. To extend your absence, contact your account manager.
Our operations team contacts you about a week before your lease end date to explain the return check-out and key handover.
We carry out a return check-out just before you come back to ensure the home is clean and your belongings intact. The report is then sent by email.
Written approval is mandatory. Our agency status, insurance certificate and management framework reassure landlords. Over 80% accept a Leazly-managed sublet.
No — it is illegal for a tenant to profit from subletting, which is why we pay exactly your rent amount. Breaching this risks fines and eviction.
Our agency status helps us obtain approval in over 80% of cases. Landlords are reassured by our management framework, insurance certificate and on-site procedures — that trust has allowed us to manage hundreds of homes.
Our team supports you through the process and can contact your landlord directly if you wish. We provide an explanatory leaflet if you prefer to convince them yourself.
If you rent through a letting agency, our team contacts them for the required approval when they act as agent. Otherwise the agency must obtain owner approval after we provide a full presentation of our concept and guarantees.
To manage your home for short stays we must confirm it is your primary residence. Seasonal rental of secondary homes is illegal in France. The limit is 90 days per calendar year; longer absences require justification (work travel, health, force majeure).
For secondary residences we can guide you through change-of-use procedures.
You must declare the income we pay you as BIC (industrial and commercial profits). You benefit from a 50% flat-rate deduction on this income. We can provide rent certificates if needed.
