How to apply for changing apartments

Apply for an apartment, Changing apartments

You can apply for changing apartments by filling in an apartment application. Applying for and offering an apartment proceeds in the same way as with all other applicants. When changing apartments inside the Student Village, you don’t need to consider the normal notice period.

The applicant accepts the apartment offer by signing the tenancy agreement electronically by the due date of the offer. If the applicant cannot identify electronically i.e., sign the agreement electronically, he or she must accept the apartment offer by signing the agreement at the service point of Soihtu Housing.

If you change apartment within the same apartment type, for instance form studio to studio, we will charge you a service fee of 55 € with the first rent. If you change to another apartment type, for instance from a shared apartment to a studio, or if the change is due to changes in the size of family or health related reasons, the service won’t be charged.

If you are changing your apartment from Soihtu’s apartment to another Soihtu’s apartment, please fill in the notice form after you have accepted the new apartment offer and signed the tenancy agreement. Please do not fill in the form before you have signed the new tenancy agreement.

If you move from one apartment to another within the same housing location (e.g., from one Student Village apartment to another), your possible private sauna reservation remains valid. If you want to cancel your sauna reservation when making an internal move, you can do so in the booking service. If you move from one apartment to another in a different housing location, your sauna reservation will be automatically terminated.
