Important information for residents
Excellent that you came to LOAS! Please read some brief tips and facts below on what should be done now and how housing takes place with us.
Issues worth considering when moving in and during your residency:
Rental agreement terms
Read the rental agreement terms carefully. It is worth confirming from the rental agreement terms, what the period of notice for the apartment is if the agreement is valid until further notice. A fixed term agreement cannot be terminated mid-term.
Store the key with care
You should look after the key carefully. If the key is lost, the serialisation of locks is subject to significant costs. If you leave your key in the apartment, you can borrow a key from the office during opening hours free of charge. The security company will open the door for a fee.
First fill in the apartment card
However, first it is worth checking the condition of the apartment and any possible faults. Start in the intranet by filling in the apartment card and report all the faults and shortcomings that you have observed. The faults reported on the apartment card will be automatically transferred to the work list of the maintenance company. Urgent faults should of course be reported by immediately calling the office. If the previous tenant has forgotten to complete the final cleaning, ask LOAS to check the need for cleaning and the matter will be sorted.
Fault reports via the intranet
Fault reports are submitted via the residents’ intranet at intra.loas.fi. You can also check and follow the status of the fault report in the intranet.
House rules
It's nice to start your studies and new life in a pleasant home and environment. First you should familiarise with the house rules, of which here are a few:
- All our apartments are smoke-free - smoking is prohibited in all buildings and balconies. Smoking areas have been marked separately in the yard areas.
- Silence between 11 pm - 7 am
"Don´t be rabbit pants, check Intra."
House-warming parties are held in new homes and new friends are introduced
Sometimes a neighbour’s party may cause disturbance. If loud parties are a repetitive problem, start by discussing the situation with the relevant neighbour. If the situation continues, you can report the disturbance to LOAS by filling in the form on the intranet (disturbance report). We shall contact the relevant person to find out how the disturbance can be ended.
Booking the club rooms
You can book LOAS’ club rooms for your own events, ask for more information at our office. Bookings can be made at least one week before the event. The order regulations of the club rooms shall apply at events.
Booking system/saunas and parking places
You can easily book sauna and laundry room turns as well as parking places from the intranet’s booking system intra.loas.fi
Housing and home tidiness
Whenever a resident changes in a shared apartment, it is worth coming to mutual agreement on the housing and cleaning rules.
The general level of tidiness of the apartment is worth maintaining throughout the residence period. Normal weekend cleaning is sufficient as maintenance cleaning: vacuuming, wiping of surfaces and taking out the rubbish. The oven/hob and refrigerator should be cleaned regularly. When you ensure the basic cleaning already while you live in the apartment, the cleaning when moving out is always a lot easier.
Subtenancy agreement
A subtenancy agreement is concluded in the intranet. Log in to the intranet, open your agreement and click the section Subtenancies. Fill in the form and attach the agreement you have concluded for LOAS to approve it. Download a PDF file template of the agreement which you can use.
Shared cars and bicycles
LOAS offers its residents shared bicycles and cars at affordable rates.
Finally, we’d like to once more welcome you to LOAS!
