Tenants can apply for a transfer to another PSOAS apartment through the normal application process. This is also known as an internal move.
Security Deposit
For internal moves, the security deposit may need to be adjusted based on the new apartment type. Any additional deposit required will be invoiced. If the security deposit for the new apartment is higher than the previous one, a separate invoice for paying the additional deposit will be sent along with the offer. For shared apartments, the security deposit is 250/300 euros, and for family apartments and studios, it is 400 euros. For example, when moving from a shared apartment to a studio, the tenant must pay an additional security deposit of 150 euros.
Transfer Fee
A 50 € fee is charged to cover the costs of the apartment change. This fee covers the costs of work caused by the transfer. An invoice for this fee is given when signing the new tenancy agreement.
Notice Period
In an internal move, the normal calendar month notice period is not observed if the apartment is offered based on the tenant’s transfer application. Once a tenant has received an apartment change offer, they can terminate their existing agreement to end at the end of the current month.
Internal Move vs. Direct Booking
If a tenant books an immediately available apartment through the website, the tenancy of the current apartment ends at the end of the following month. Reserving an available apartment does not constitute an internal move.
Important: During the busy August-October period, internal moves are not possible as priority is given to new student applicants.
