Homeowners who decided to offer their properties for short-term rentals asked for an amendment to the Compact. For this reason, the Milan Chamber of Commerce, Monza-Brianza and Lodi have recently introduced a new model of Tourist Rental Agreement.
The most important point is the obligation of the tenant to provide the landlord with the documents of those who will live in the rented apartments before moving in, so that the landlord can register the data through the Italian online police portal – Alloggiatiweb .
Once signed, the short-term lease agreement can be emailed by the tenant. Changes may be made according to different needs (extension or reduction of the rental period), provided that these changes are made in writing and agree with the prescribed conditions.
A short-term rental agreement is not mandatory, but it helps landlords establish a proper relationship with guests and avoid risks. For example, makes it possible to request a deposit, in case the tenant is late in leaving.
This model of a short-term rental agreement in Italy also involves a kind of “etiquette”, which includes rules about the time of entry into the house, a ban on smoking, rules about pets. To be legally enforceable, must be agreed upon with the tenant before the lease begins.
