Rental agreement and moving in

Security deposit

The security deposit equals 1 to 3 months’ rent for the apartment concerned, and it must be paid before signing the rental agreement. The security deposit will be returned within about 1 month after the expiry of the rental agreement if nothing in excess of normal wear and tear is noticed in the move-out inspection and the apartment has been left in a clean condition.

Any unpaid rents, utility charges and the costs of cleaning, emptying and repairing the apartment will be deducted from the refundable security deposit. The cost of rekeying the lock will also be deducted from the security deposit (if the lock must be rekeyed due to lost key(s)). Any costs in excess of the security deposit will be invoiced to the resident separately. No interest will be paid on the security deposit.

Rental agreement

The rental agreement can be open-ended or for a fixed term. An open-ended rental agreement expires upon termination after the end of the notice period. A fixed-term rental agreement expires on the date of expiry indicated in the agreement without any separate notice of termination.

By signing the rental agreement, you undertake to comply with the laws, terms and conditions, instructions, and house regulations related to a residential lease.

Rent Payments

On the 5th day of each month. The tenant is required to assign any housing allowance to Wartalo Kodit Oy.

For a delayed payment, the resident will be charged interest on late payment according to the Interest Act, as well as potential collection costs. In the event of rent payment difficulties, the resident is advised to contact the rent collection company to draw up a payment plan.

Moving in

The personal data of those moving in are entered in the register of residents upon signing the rental agreement. If the number of residents in the apartment changes later, the data on the new or moved-out family member must be notified to the office of Wartalo Kodit Oy. This is to ensure that the house resident data and the data on the extract from the register of residents remain up to date. The keys to the apartment can be obtained from the office of Wartalo Kodit Oy at Antinpuisto 8.

You can reserve a parking space and sauna time from the office of Wartalo Kodit Oy or electronically parking space from here and sauna time from here. The keys to the parking space will be delivered by the property maintenance worker when the parking space has been reserved.

Initial inspection

The apartment has been inspected before the new resident moves in. When moving in, the resident is also required to inspect the apartment by him/herself and report any defects or deficiencies noted as soon as possible after moving in by calling Wartalo Kodit Oy’s customer service, the property maintenance worker in their area, or by submitting an electronic fault report.

Electricity supply contracts

The apartment’s electricity supply contract must be concluded by the resident him/herself. The electricity supplier can be freely chosen by the resident. The electricity supply contract must be concluded well in advance of moving in, as the tenant is responsible for electricity for the term of the rental agreement.

Insurance

The property insurance taken out by Wartalo Kodit Oy only covers damage to the property. It does not compensate for damage caused to the resident’s personal belongings in the apartment or elsewhere in the premises of the property.

We recommend residents to take out home insurance to protect their personal belongings. It is advisable to include liability insurance in the home insurance that covers damages caused by the resident him/herself. It does not compensate for damage caused to the resident’s personal belongings in the apartment or elsewhere in the premises of the property.
