Please read through the apartment offer you received carefully. We will inform you of the cash deposit amount and provide instructions for paying the deposit in the apartment offer.
Please note that the cash deposit cannot be transferred from one apartment or rental agreement to another — a separate deposit must be paid for each rental agreement.

I paid the cash deposit today — when will the rental agreement be sent to me for signing?
Please first make sure that you have submitted all the attachments required with your application. If the attachments have not been submitted, we cannot yet send the rental agreement for signing, even if the cash deposit has already been paid.
When paying the cash deposit, you do not need to send us a receipt of the payment. We will wait for the payment to appear as received on our end. Depending on the bank, the transfer of the cash deposit may take a few business days.
Once the attachments have been submitted and the cash deposit payment is visible on our end, we will send the rental agreement for signing. The agreement will be sent to the email address provided on the application, and signing must be done using strong authentication. If another applicant is also listed on the application, the rental agreement will be sent to all parties for signing.
For a minor applicant, the rental agreement is signed by both the tenant and their guardian. The guardian’s consent form must be submitted first. We send the rental agreement to the minor by email without strong authentication, and to the guardian with strong authentication.
The rental agreement can also be signed at the Sevas office during our opening hours (weekdays from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM). Please book an appointment through our appointment booking service to sign the rental agreement. For a family apartment, the rental agreement is signed by both parties to the agreement.
By signing the rental agreement, you commit to complying with the Finnish Act on Residential Leases, the terms of the rental agreement, and the house rules. The building’s house rules also apply to your guests.
