Room changes

 

CHANGING DORMITORY ROOM AT TENANT'S REQUEST:

 

When a tenant wants to change the room that was originally assigned to them, the tenant needs to submit a new room request in Bidrento and select the new type of room they are applying for. The application has a comments section where all special requests can be written (reason for room change request, desired room number, preferred roommate's name etc). Our staff will try to accommodate these requests when making a room offer.

Changing the contract at tenant's own request costs 25€ and this is added to the next rent invoice. All previous rent invoices need to be paid by the time the contract change is done. The campus has the right to refuse to start a new contract with tenants who have not fulfilled the terms of their previous contract. The campus has the right to refuse a room change request if the tenant has already changed rooms several times within one year without any urgent reason.
 

  • After you receive a new room offer and accept it, the new contract will be made with a suitable starting date (new room has to be available for moving in and the tenant needs to be available on that day for moving). 
  • After signing the new contract, the tenant will be given the new room key. The magnetic door card will remain the same as before, only the room information on it will be updated.
  • After receiving the key, the tenant can transfer their personal belongings to the new room and clean the old room according to cleaning instructions sent by e-mail.
  • When cleaning is done, the tenant needs to arrange for a room check with the community manager. Tenant returns the room key to the community manager after the room check is completed.
  • Once the room check is passed, the tenant's previous contract will end.
  • Failing to clean the room and arrange for a room check will result in both rent contracts being active until the tenant has done the necessary steps mentioned above.
  • If deposit amount for the new contract is same as before, the deposit will be automatically transferred over to the new contract. 
  • If deposit for the new contract is bigger than previously, then the tenant will receive an additional deposit invoice that needs to be paid by the date written on the invoice. If the extra deposit is not paid on time, the dormitory has right to cancel the new contract.

 

CHANGING ROOM AT THE LANDLORD'S REQUEST:

 

In a case when the tenant is asked to change rooms at the landlord's request, the tenant will not need to pay 25€ contract changing fee. 

Landlord can ask that the tenant changes rooms due to following reasons:

 

  • Current dormitory room is no longer usable (needs repairs) and tenant will be given a temporary or permanent replacement room.
  • Tenant has been living alone in a twin room (while renting 1 bed) longer than 1 calendar month and refuses to start renting the whole room from the second calendar month. In such an event, the tenant will be placed together with another tenant (of the same gender) who is also living alone. The person living alone the longest will be asked to move. This is to optimize tenant placement and to make sure we have available rooms for people who want to rent the whole room.
  • In case of lifestyle incompatibility with other tenants in the apartment (tenant behaves in a way that disrupts life and studies of their neighbours).
