- kalleboo 13y agoI can believe it. Sweden has a highly regulated renter's market. For instance, you're not allowed to sublet at a cost substantially higher than the average cost of publicly owned housing. People have successfully rented a luxury apartment, then gone to court to get the price difference back.
- samuellb 13y agoSince February 1, 2013 you can no longer get rent back retroactively [1]. You can still send a complaint but then the landlord might refuse to extend your (usually short-term) contract.

- kalleboo 13y agoThanks for the update!
- samuellb 13y agoI think this is wrong, you can rent out for e.g. less than two weeks (I can't find any minimum actually). See this law (in Swedish): http://www.notisum.se/rnp/sls/lag/19700994.HTM#K12P4 http://www.notisum.se/rnp/sls/lag/19700994.HTM#K12P4 On the other hand, the property(=building) owner (both in rental and bostadsrätt/semi-owned apartments) can require a valid reason for renting out (e.g. travel) and limit the maximum time.
