🅿️ Rent out a parking space or storage

A driveway, parking space, garage or shed let monthly to commuters or for storage.

Modelled monthly, once steady

€60 – €250

Capital

from €0 (typical €0)

Your time

4h to set up, ~1h a month

Time to income

first ~1 mo · steady ~2 mo

The assumptions behind that range

  • One space or unit at €60–€250 a month — highest near city centres, hospitals, stations and colleges.

A model, not a promise. Your result can be lower, including zero.

First three steps

  1. Check you are allowed to let it
  2. Look up nearby monthly parking/storage prices
  3. List it with a simple written licence agreement

Before you start

  • Check your title, lease or management company rules allow it.
  • Clear written agreement on access and liability.

Risks

  • Low demand outside cities.
  • Access disputes with neighbours or a management company.
