EN: to rent out; to lease out
This is the verb for what landlords and business-minded Pinoys do. If you have an extra room, a condo you're not using, or even a high-end bike, you can **iupa** it for extra cash. It's the OG side hustle. "For rent" signs are basically saying "Pwedeng iupa."
ROOT MEANING: rent, wage, hire fee
The focus is on the thing being rented out. Contrast with 'umupa', which means 'to rent (from someone)'.
