Signing The Tenancy Agreement
All exchange students must sign a tenancy agreement for their apartment. This agreement protects the interests of both the tenant and the lessor. Agreements are signed electronically using the signature service provided by Visma Sign. You’ll receive an invitation to sign after completing your Homerun reservation. Please save a copy of the agreement for your records.
Tenancy Period
Your tenancy agreement is a fixed-term contract aligned with your exchange period. The agreement starts on the first day of your arrival month (e.g., September 1st for most of the fall semester students). The tenancy remains valid until the end date specified in the agreement.
Rent payments begin on the start date of the agreement. Rent must be paid for the entire rental period, even if you leave early. Before signing, carefully review the rental period and all terms. Apartment changes are only permitted for compelling reasons (e.g., medical necessities).
Extending The Tenancy Agreement
If you want to extend your stay, contact the PSOAS office two months before your current agreement ends. For example, for an agreement ending May 31st, request an extension by March 31st if you wish to stay through June.
Terminating The Tenancy Agreement
The agreement automatically ends on the date specified in the contract. You do not need to provide a separate notice of termination. Early termination is not possible due to the fixed-term nature of the agreement.
