Questions About Hosting?
Who will be renting my property?
Your property will be rented by verified international university students, Erasmus participants, and digital nomads coming to Thessaloniki. We focus on connecting you with responsible tenants looking for safe, medium to long-term stays.
Is it free to list my property on ThessNest?
Yes, creating a listing on ThessNest is completely free with no hidden subscription costs. We only charge a small, transparent service fee when your property is successfully booked through our platform.
How do I receive my rent payments and security deposit?
The first month’s rent is processed through our secure system and transferred to your bank account 48 hours after the tenant moves in. The security deposit and all future monthly rent payments are paid directly to you by the tenant.
What happens if there is damage to my property?
We highly recommend collecting a security deposit directly from your tenants upon their arrival to act as a safety net against potential damages. Furthermore, our verified students and nomads have a strong track record of treating properties with respect and care.
What is the average rental period?
The typical rental duration matches the academic semesters, usually ranging from 2 to 10 months. Because Thessaloniki has a constant demand for student housing, this model ensures a steady income without locking you into multi-year contracts.
