LivedIn connects hosts and tenants for stays of 1 to 10 months. You create a profile, verify your identity, then browse listings and send a booking request directly to the host.

LivedIn is designed for students, interns, expats and professionals on the move who need a furnished home for a mid-term stay. Everyone must verify their identity before contacting a host.

Verification takes 2 minutes from your profile. You submit a valid ID document, which is automatically checked. You can then access all listings and contact hosts.

Payment is processed securely, with PCI-DSS certified encryption. The first month is charged when the booking is confirmed. Subsequent months are automatically charged on the agreed date.

It depends on the lease type. Many international tenants use Visale, a free rental guarantee that replaces a personal guarantor. Eligibility details are covered in our bail mobilité guide.

When a deposit is required, it's held by LivedIn, not the host directly, and returned at the end of the stay if the property is left in good condition. If host and tenant disagree, our team reviews the case before deciding.

You get an email as soon as the host responds, whether they accept or not. A decline isn't a reflection on your profile: it just wasn't the right listing or timing for that host. You can request another listing right away.

Yes, from your dashboard. If the stay was already paid, the refund is triggered automatically as soon as you cancel.

Yes. Both tenant and host can leave a review of each other after the stay. Reviews are only published once both sides have submitted theirs (or after a 14-day window), so each side can write freely without seeing the other's first.

Yes. From the search results page, save your search (city, budget, property type) and you'll get an email as soon as a matching listing is published.

Contact support immediately at contact@livedin.fr. We take every report seriously and take appropriate action, up to and including cancellation and refund.

Create an account, complete your profile, then go to 'My listing' from your dashboard. Specify whether you're the owner or subletting, add photos, describe the property, set your price and availability. Your listing is live in minutes.

No, both go through the exact same booking and payment process. It's just a question asked at the start of listing creation, to better understand your situation. If you're subletting, just make sure you have your landlord's written consent.

Only users who have verified their identity. This ensures your listings are only seen by real people who are serious about their search.

You remain free to accept or decline any booking request. Each profile displays the information shared by the tenant: their situation, introduction message, and verification status.

LivedIn is 100% free for hosts: you receive the full rent, with no commission at all. The tenant pays a one-time service fee at booking (20% of the monthly rent, between 99 and 399 euros), which covers profile verification, secure payments, and support.

It depends on the tenant's situation and the length of stay. The bail mobilité (1 to 10 months, no security deposit) suits documented mobility situations; beyond that, a classic furnished lease is a better fit. Full details are in our bail mobilité guide.

No, if you're renting under a bail mobilité or a classic furnished lease: the Le Meur law specifically regulates tourist furnished rentals (Airbnb-style), not mid-term rentals like the ones on LivedIn. We break down the distinction in this article.

You can enable instant booking on your listing. Eligible tenants can then confirm their stay without waiting for your manual approval. You retain the right to cancel within 24 hours if needed.

Yes, from your dashboard, but this should stay exceptional: the tenant is refunded immediately and notified. Repeated cancellations can affect your listing's visibility.

The first month's payment is charged to the tenant when the booking is confirmed; later months are charged automatically on the lease's anniversary date. Payouts to you follow the schedule shown in your dashboard.

Yes. All users are verified before they can interact. Payments are processed through a PCI-DSS certified provider, LivedIn never stores your banking details. Your data is protected in accordance with GDPR.

LivedIn is built for stays of several weeks to several months (bail mobilité or a classic furnished lease), not short-term tourist rentals. We cover the concrete differences in this article.

Yes. Our arrival checklist generates, for free and with no account required, the list of steps you need (visa, bank account, CAF, insurance...) based on your nationality, status, and arrival date.

Listings are published in the host's chosen currency (EUR, CHF, GBP or USD), but you can pay in your own currency: the conversion happens automatically at checkout.

LivedIn is currently available in Paris. Other cities will be available soon.
