Deposit, contract and subletting rules

The Italian framework caps covered security at three months’ rent with legal interest treatment. Registration is required where the qualifying lease or sublease exceeds the relevant 30-day threshold.

A furnished Erasmus room is not automatically exempt. Verify contract type, landlord/head-tenant authority, deposit and registration.

Utilities, furnishing and minimum stay

Verify utilities, condominium, heating, AC, electricity, Internet, furnishing, minimum stay, notice and whether a centre room is tourism or long-term residential.

Florence rental and payment risks

Classify the room, contract, property and payment before treating a listing as comparable.

  • Tourism room defines the ordinary range.
  • Qualifying contract is not registered.
  • Deposit exceeds three months.
  • Centre room is compared with Novoli without transport or utility context.
  • Head tenant cannot prove subletting authority.
  • Condominium/heating/AC charges are omitted.
  • Scandicci or Sesto Fiorentino is labeled Florence city.
