The Apartment Card and Inspection
Check the apartment’s condition immediately after moving to the apartment. The Apartment Card is filled out electronically. You will receive a link to your email in the beginning of the first month of your tenancy through which the card can be filled. If you are to report faults that require maintenance, remember to fill out a separate Note of Fault in the end of the card.
By checking the apartment, you are making sure that you are not responsible for the possible flaws that have been caused by the previous tenant. Be thorough for your own good. In unclear cases, contact maintenance service.
