For Tenants
A transparent look at how Nomad Pads works: contact for availability, simple move-in requirements, 30-day minimum stays up to 6 months, and pricing that beats Airbnb for medium-term living.
The gap we fill
If you need a furnished place for one to six months, you're often stuck between two bad options. Airbnb is built for nights and weekends — not a quarter or half-year as your home base. Traditional rentals want 12-month minimums, a Mexican fiador, and a póliza de arrendamiento. Nomad Pads offers inventory many medium-term renters can't access elsewhere — furnished, vetted, 30-day minimum stays with extensions when owners allow. If we don't have a fit, we'll find one for you.
Nightly pricing adds up fast. Listings aren't set up for a real desk, stable wifi, or monthly budgeting. Hosts can cancel or change terms mid-stay.
Our approach: Fixed monthly rent on a proper lease — typically cheaper than Airbnb for 30-day+ stays.
Agents and landlords routinely require 12-month contracts, a fiador, and rental insurance (póliza). Most nomads and expats don't qualify.
Our approach: No fiador, no póliza, no credit checks — just ID, first month's rent, and a one-month deposit.
You need 1–6 months furnished in Roma, Condesa, Polanco, or nearby — move in within days, extend if plans change.
Our approach: We connect you with owners who list for medium-term stays. Browse, apply online, sign a bilingual lease, get keys.
No credit checks, no background checks, and no income verification required for our partner properties.
Find furnished apartments in Roma, Condesa, and Polanco. Listings show "Contact for availability" — create an account to inquire. Save favorites and message us with questions.
Ask about dates, pricing, and amenities directly on the listing. We pass your contact information to the property owner so they can confirm availability.
To book, you only need a valid ID, first month's rent, and a one-month refundable deposit. No fiador, no póliza, no Mexican credit history.
30-day minimum stays, typically up to 6 months — extensions may be available depending on the property owner. You receive a bilingual lease before you sign.
Pay first month and deposit via bank transfer, Wise, or Revolut. Nomad Pads charges a 10% service fee on the total lease value, paid separately — still typically cheaper than Airbnb for medium-term stays.
We coordinate key handoff and share wifi, building codes, and neighborhood tips. If we don't have a property that fits, we'll help find one for you.
