The foundation has stable economy and has had a reasonable development in management and capital costs, which make it possible that the living costs in DAS student apartments stay the same as in year 2018. Utility fees will stay the same also due to good control in energy consumption. For the low level of energy consumption, we thank the tenants. With the zero increase of rent is also an action in the competition between lessors and rental market in Rovaniemi region.
Construction work of the foundation’s new building, wooden apartment building DAS Kelo, is proceeding in schedule. The first space elements will be put on its’ place during week 48. There will be 103 studios, big laundry for tenants on the ground floor and sauna department on the top floor. How to apply the DAS Kelo apartments we will inform before summer 2019.
DAS is planning to make some renovations especially in Rantavitikka are oldest buildings. When you receive a questionary about renovations, please answer to it. By answering you can influence on the colours and materials used in the apartment renovations.
The coming year 2019 is the foundation’s 50th anniversary. It will be showing in many different ways throughout the year in DAS operations and in tenants’ events. Keep up with the news and take part in the anniversary!
