house rental

Paying for residence

House rental is the arrangement of paying to occupy a house temporarily, or the house itself under such an arrangement.

The term covers both the transaction and the property: House rentals in beach towns spike during summer months.

It distinguishes rented houses from apartments or condos, often implying more space or a standalone structure.
