Accepting an apartment

When you find a suitable home

Apartment offer

Accepting an apartment happens in stages. A notification of a potential apartment offer will be sent to the applicant, either by email or as a text message, depending on which you have chosen. Apartment offers are usually sent 4–6 weeks before the apartment is needed. The actual apartment offer can be viewed in the applicant’s service. You can only accept or refuse an apartment offer via the applicant’s service.

After approving an offer and sign a rental agreement electronically or at the TYS office.

Accepting an apartment offer

When an apartment offer has been made to you, you will receive a notification of this to your email. The actual apartment offer and its additional information can be viewed in the applicant’s service.

Read the apartment offer through carefully. For example, make sure that the apartment’s layout and its rent are suitable for you. The apartment offer will be valid for four full days.

You can accept an apartment offer after you have first confirmed that you consent to the terms and conditions of the rental agreement as well as the rules of conduct. An accepted apartment offer is always binding.

Security deposit

As of 1.1.2020, new leases will not be subject to a security deposit. However, if you have a payment default, a security deposit equalling three month’s rent will be charged.

Rejecting an apartment offer

TYS makes only one housing offer per application. This means that if you decline the housing offer you receive, your application will be removed from the system, and you will no longer be able to receive a new housing offer based on that particular application. If you still wish to apply for housing from TYS after declining an offer, you will need to submit a new housing application.

If you do not react to the apartment offer, the offer will be automatically rejected and your application will be deleted.
