### Does Blueground require a security deposit?
None if you pay by instant bank transfer (Los Angeles stays always require one); pay another way and Blueground may hold a refundable security deposit, amount set at booking (source: https://www.theblueground.com/contracts/atx/terms)

### What is Blueground's minimum stay?
Monthly-stay focus; 30-day-and-under bookings have their own cancellation tier, so shorter stays exist at some buildings (source: https://www.theblueground.com/contracts/atx/terms)

### What is Blueground's cancellation policy?
Over 30 days: half a month's rent if you cancel 15+ days before move-in, one month's rent inside 15 days. 30 days or less: free 30+ days out, 50% at 14-29 days, 100% at 0-13 days (source: https://www.theblueground.com/contracts/atx/terms)

### What fees does Blueground charge on top of rent?
Dynamic pricing by season, stay length, and availability; a full cost breakdown and payment timeline are shown before booking; parking and pet fees vary by building (source: https://www.theblueground.com/apartments-pricing)

### Does Blueground allow pets?

## Page content
Designer-furnished apartments for stays of 30 days or longer, aimed at relocating professionals and corporate clients. The classic lease-arbitrage operator: it signs 1-to-2-year leases directly with landlords, furnishes the apartments to its own standard, and re-rents them for 30-plus-day stays. It is also adding asset-light routes, including a partner network and franchising.

CompareFurnished is operated by Landing, one of the providers reviewed on this site. That is disclosed on every page for a reason: every number below is a captured quote or a sourced policy you can check against Blueground’s own site, and the math is identical for every provider.
