  1. renting

    Renting is the process of paying an agreed amount, typically monthly, to use or occupy a property, item, or service owned by someone else for a specified period of time. It's essentially a contractual agreement between a tenant (the renter) and a landlord (the person or entity who owns the item or property). The tenant gains access to the property or item without having to pay the full purchase price upfront.
