Erasmus Kit
For landlords

List your housing for free and verified

Students preparing an Erasmus+ look for housing from far away and fear scams. If your place is real and your terms are clear, they find you here knowing we have checked it. Listing is free and nobody can pay to appear first.

Listing application

Who can list and what we will ask

  • Student hall

    Company name and registration number. We contact you through a channel we find ourselves, such as your website or an official register.

  • University housing

    The application must come from the official domain of the university or its housing service.

  • Letting agency

    Company name and registration and, for each flat, the management contract that entitles you to rent it.

  • Private landlord

    A video call to check your identity with your ID document (we don't keep a copy) and walk through the place, and the document that entitles you to rent it: title deed, land registry extract or a lease that allows subletting.

From everyone: a payment account in your name in the country of the property, and seeing the place live, in person or on a video call.

How it works

  1. You send the application with your details and your first place.
  2. We contact you to check it: your details, the payment account and a live viewing.
  3. We publish the listing with what we checked and the date.
  4. Every 90 days you confirm it is still available, and every year we review your details.

What we check before publishing

A person on the team checks it, not a program. What we ask depends on who is listing: we ask more from a private landlord than from a registered student hall.

  • In an official register

    We found it in a public register (company, tax or student housing register) under the same name and number.

    We saw their ID document on a live video call. We don't keep a copy.

    For: private landlord

  • Contacted through our own channel

    We contacted them through a phone number or email from their official website or a register, not the details they gave us.

  • Phone checked

    We called the phone number you will see in the listing.

    For: private landlord

    The payment account is in their name and in the country of the property. An account from another country is a known scam sign.

    Price, deposit, bills and payment method are in the listing, and no money is asked before seeing the place and signing.

The rules listers accept

  1. No payment before the student has seen the place, in person or on a live video call, and signed the contract.

  2. The published price is what you pay each month. Bills not included are shown with an approximate amount.

  3. The deposit is at most two months' rent, and the listing says when it is returned.

  4. Payment only by bank transfer to the checked account, by card or by direct debit. Never in cash, cryptocurrency, Western Union or MoneyGram, or through peer-to-peer payment apps.

  6. Replies only come from the checked contact details, without asking to move to other channels.

  7. When the place is rented, the listing is removed within three days. Every 90 days availability must be confirmed or the listing expires.

  8. The place complies with the rules of its country, and the listing does not discriminate on grounds of origin, sex, religion, sexual orientation or disability.

  9. If a serious report comes in, the listing is suspended while it is reviewed. If a breach is confirmed, all of the lister's listings are removed.

If you are a private landlord, your full name. The listing only shows the name you choose below.

The trading name of the hall or, if you are a private landlord, your first name.

Tax ID, VAT number or company registration number. If you are a private landlord, leave it empty: we check your identity on the video call.

Required except for private landlords.

With the international prefix, for example +39 051…

The place

If you are a private landlord, the listing only shows the neighbourhood; we use the address to check the place.

Bills included in the price?

For example, "fixed-term tenancy" or "student hall licence".
