Applying for a rental apartment

1. Have a look on our website at our rental apartments that are either currently available or due to become available soon

Using the search function, you can define your own search terms and find units that are suitable for you. The advert for each apartment provides more detailed information about the apartment and the contact details of the sales representative.

If you cannot find an apartment that suits you with the search function, you can browse all of our rental housing units here. You can also submit an application for apartments that are not currently available or due to become available soon.

2. Submit a rental apartment application

Once you have found a suitable option, fill in an application online. Please take care when filling in the form, as tenants are selected based on the information provided here. Please note that we will review your credit history when processing your application, for which we will require your personal identity code. We process information included in applications confidentially. If you already have a pending application with us, submitting a new application will replace the last application you submitted. An application remains valid for three months.

You can also fill in and print out an application ja and post it to our office. However, where possible we prefer to receive applications online.

3. See the apartment

In general, you can see the apartment after your application has been processed and the apartment is offered to you. Sometimes, joint viewings of vacant units are also held, with no advance registration required. Unfortunately, viewings of new properties cannot be arranged.

4. Wait for an apartment offer

We will offer you a unit that meets your requests as soon as one becomes available. Some of our rental apartments are state-subsidised Arava apartments and others are interest-subsidised apartments. We select tenants for these apartments based on the household’s need for housing, wealth and income, in accordance with a government decree, and we review these factors when you apply for housing. There are maximum limits for these units in terms of wealth. See the criteria for resident selection for subsidised non-profit rental housing.

5. Provide the sales representative with the necessary additional documents

If we offer you an apartment to which wealth limits apply, we will request in the offer that you submit the necessary additional documents for your application. At this point we require you to submit up-to-date additional documentation regarding your income, wealth and housing need. You can submit the attachments primarily by email to the sales representative who sent you the offer. If you are unable to submit the additional documents electronically, you can also bring or post them to our office.

If you are applying for an apartment for seniors, you may be required to submit additional documentation or there may be additional conditions for receiving an apartment. Learn more about the required documents.

6. Sign your rental agreement

If you accept an apartment offer, we will agree jointly on a time and date to sign your rental agreement. The agreement can also be signed using your online banking credentials, in which case you do not need to come to our office.
