letting
This term is predominantly used in British English to describe the process of renting out property. In American English, the word "rental" is far more common for both the act of renting and the property itself. Using "letting" in a US context may sound overly formal or archaic.
When used as a noun to describe a specific property, it functions as a countable noun. However, when referring to the general process or business of granting leases, it is treated as an uncountable activity. The adjective form is typically used in professional real estate contexts, such as "letting agents" or "letting fees," to distinguish the landlord's side of the transaction from the tenant's side.
