Looking for Chiang Mai sublet

[ricklev]

I'm looking to sublet a condo/apartment/house between 15 December and 15 January in Chiang Mai. Any part of that time period would be OK also.

I'm a long term expat living in Bangkok. Excellent references. Quiet and mature.

Please send me a PM if you know of something.

Thanks.

Is that the same as "rent"?

What does 'sublet' mean?

I guess it is.

Just thinking there might be someone going away for the holidays that wants to cover their rent or put their condo to use. I do it myself sometimes.

I am going away for two weeks and have a house which will be empty for the time.

However, handing that over to a complete stranger? Whilst I'm out of the country? No.

Try Golden Apartments, Nong Hoi. 2500B/week no deposit inc bills. Air con, separate kitchen.

Sub-letting is fairly common practice in Thailand as well as in Europe. When people go away for a month or more they often let out their place to generate some cash. No big deal. Don't think it's a popular practice in America.

So you mean rent then.

Sub-let is to rent from the tenant (i.e. the person who may or may not be in possession of the lease).

Correct ............. and most times it will be against the terms of the tenancy agreement.

AirBnB.com is pretty much exactly for what the OP is looking for, a short term rental.
