What is a midterm rental?
A midterm rental is a home rented for 30 days to 12 months. You sign a lease for the stay and pay rent each month.

Questions
How long is a midterm rental?
Anywhere from 30 days to 12 months. Each host on MatchBook sets the stay lengths their place takes. If you don’t know your end date yet, see month-to-month rentals.
Are midterm rentals furnished?
Often, since people staying a few months rarely bring furniture. MatchBook lists both furnished and unfurnished homes.
Is it the same as a monthly rental?
Yes. Midterm rental, mid-term rental and monthly rental all mean a stay of a month or more that’s shorter than a standard lease.
I have a place to rent. Where do I start?
Listing on MatchBook is free. See hosting on MatchBook, or moving a short-term rental to monthly stays.
