To apply for a Joo rental apartment, you need a Finnish personal identity code and no derogatory marks on your credit report.

If you have only minor derogatories or you’ve paid off the balance and had an REF entry added on your credit report, you can still apply. Once you’ve completed the application, please contact us and we’ll see what we can do.

If you are interested in renting one or more apartments for your business, please contact our rentals team via email at sales@joo-kodit.fi.

We want to make renting a new home easy and carefree for you. Here’s how it works:

1. Find a rental apartment you like in our apartment search. Click on the "Start renting" link on the advert and fill in the booking form. You will need a Finnish online banking ID to confirm your identity. If you don't have Finnish online banking codes, you have derogatory marks on your credit report or you're under 18, please fill in this application form instead. If you are interested in renting one or more apartments for your business, please contact our rentals team via email at sales@joo-kodit.fi.

2. Once you've completed your application or booking, our rental representative will get in touch with you to arrange a viewing or to finalise the tenancy agreement. Both can be easily done online.

3. After signing the agreement, you’ll need to get a comprehensive home insurance with personal liability coverage and an energy deal for the apartment.

4. Finally, just pick up the keys. Good luck for your new home!

You don’t need to view an apartment if you don’t want to. Alternatively, we can arrange a video viewing.

If you rather see the apartment in person, book the apartment first:

Find a rental apartment you like in our apartment search. Click on the "Start renting" link on the advert and fill in the booking form. Towards the end of your booking, you can request to see the apartment before signing the tenancy agreement. You can cancel your booking after the viewing in case you don’t like the apartment after all.

You can move in as soon as your tenancy agreement starts. If the apartment is empty, that could even be on the next weekday!

You'll be able to pick up your keys at 12 p.m. on the start date of your tenancy agreement at the latest. Our rental representative will email you about when and where you can pick up the keys. Read about different options here.

Please remember to bring a photo ID with you when picking up your keys. Accepted documents are Finnish ID cards, Finnish driving licenses and Finnish passports. We also accept valid foreign passports with a registration of a foreigner certificate, Finnish residence permit cards, and Kela cards with a Finnish ID-number.

You can check it from the housing advertisement.

That’s a definite yes! As a Joo tenant you need to have comprehensive home insurance with a personal liability policy.

As a tenant, you’ll need to make your own electricity contract. The tenant is responsible for the electricity consumption of any heating and/or ventilation equipment connected to the apartment's electricity supply.

Depending on the apartment, you will either be billed a fixed water fee or a water prepayment. Please contact our customer service if the number of people living with you changes, as it affects the amount of the payment.

If your apartment complex has broadband, we charge an apartment-specific media fee. You can contact the service provider to increase your broadband speed at an additional charge.

Yes! We say Joo to all pets suited to life in an apartment block. Please note that you’re responsible for any damage or excessive wear and tear to the apartment caused by your pet.

Joo+ and Joo Premium rental apartments are for you if you're looking to rent a furnished apartment for a longer period of time.

Read more about our furnished apartments for companies here.

All our new tenancy agreements are valid until further notice. The earliest possible start date of the notice period varies. You can check the earliest possible starting date of the notice period from the housing advertisement or your contract.

The rent bills are sent to you monthly about two weeks before the billing date. The due date is usually the 5th of each calendar month (as stated on the tenancy agreement).

The first rent must be paid before picking up the keys. You will get more information about this from your rental representative.

You'll receive your rent bills to the email address you put in the tenancy agreement, unless otherwise agreed. If you haven't received any emails, please check your spam folder.

If your lessor is Joo Kodit, you'll get your rent bills also in the Jooppi residents' app. In the MyRopo service, you can check your billing status and make payments. You can also get in contact with Ropo's customer service.

Once you've received the first bill, you can make things even easier by ordering the next ones as eInvoices directly to your online bank.

Order eInvoices - here's how easy it is:

Log in to your online bank. If you paid the rent bills of your previous property manager by eInvoice, please first delete the old mandate from your online bank.

Please double-check your bill or tenancy agreement to confirm whether you're renting the apartment from Joo Kodit or Niskanen Residential. Then, you can request eInvoices from your online bank using the correct company name or business ID:

• Joo Kodit, y-tunnus: 2808794-5
• Niskanen Residential, y-tunnus: 2692391-1
• E-invoices are not available for tenancy agreements with Jaakko Niskanen as the lessor.

The reference number on your bill will serve as your payer identification.

Choose your preferred settings, such as whether you want to pay the e-Invoice automatically.

And there you go, one less thing to remember, allowing you to focus on the important things in your life. If you have any problems ordering e-Invoices, please ask your bank's customer service to help you out.

Besides eInvoices, you can choose to receive your rent bills in paper form or set up a direct debit agreement with your bank. For businesses, we'll provide electronic invoices once we have their electronic invoicing details. If you need any help, don't hesitate to reach out to our rent management customer service.

Corporate customers can choose from the following billing options:

• EInvoice
• Email
• Paper invoice

Please provide us with your company's billing information for sending the rent bills.

If you’re entitled to Kela’s general housing allowance, authorise them to pay the allowance directly to your lessor, which can be Joo Kodit, Jaakko Niskanen or Niskanen Residential. You can check your lessor from your tenancy agreement. Kela will need a copy of your tenancy agreement and rent bill. If your lessor is Joo Kodit, please send them also your permanent reference number, which you can find in the Jooppi residents’ app under My documents > Bills.

If you haven’t paid your rent on time, the unpaid bill will be transferred to Intrum's reminder and collection service, with an added reminder fee and late payment interest. If you received a letter from Intrum, please pay the total amount directly to Intrum using the payment details provided in the letter.

Is this your first payment reminder from Intrum? Don't worry. If you pay the bill on time, it will not result in a payment default entry, nor will it affect your tenancy agreement. To make rent payments easier to remember in the future, why not order the bills as eInvoices directly to your online bank?

If you fail to pay your rent despite the collection efforts, it could result in the rescission of your tenancy agreement. In addition to that, the collections company may refer the matter to the district court. This could result in the legal collection of your unpaid bills and eviction, as well as a payment default entry on your credit record.

Do you have questions about Intrum's bills? We kindly ask you to contact Intrum's customer service:

• 09 2291 1954 (Mon-Fri 7.30 a.m. to 5 p.m.)
• My Intrum service portal (open 24 hours, login with your online bank credentials)
• See all Intrum's contact details here

If your lessor is Joo Kodit and you have questions about paying the bills, the easiest way to manage your queries is through the MyRopo service. There, you can check your billing status, make payments, and contact Ropo's customer service. See other contact details for Ropo’s customer service here.

Do you have any questions about the water charge, media fee, or any other details on your bill? Our Joo team is happy to assist you via the Jooppi app chat, via email at joo@joo-kodit.fi or by phone on 020 766 1390 (Weekdays from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Cost: mcc/lnc.)

You can fill in the move-in inspection checklist in the Jooppi app. You'll find it on Prepare for your move / Continue preparations > Complete your move-in inspection checklist.

Please make sure to complete the move-in inspection form within 5 days of starting your tenancy. This will ensure that, when it's time to move to your next place, you won't be held accountable for pre-existing wear and tear in the apartment. It also makes the move-out inspection smoother when you eventually leave, and helps speed up the return of any deposit you might have paid.

You’ll find the contact details of the maintenance company in the Customer Service tab of our Jooppi app or on the bulletin board in the lobby of your apartment block.

Please let us know about any problems via our Jooppi app for residents.

If the issue needs immediate attention (e.g. broken windows, water leaks), please contact the emergency hotline of the maintenance company for your home. You’ll find their contact details on our Jooppi app or on the bulletin board of the apartment complex.

In case of furniture or equipment breakages in the apartment, or if you lose your key, kindly let us know as soon as possible. To find out the charges for damages caused by resident negligence, please see this price list. The price list also details the costs related to inadequate end of tenancy cleaning.

You can hang up artwork or other objects, as long as you don’t leave big marks on the walls. Picture hanging strips, for example, are a handy way to put up light-weight artwork. Please do not use double-sided tape to attach the paintings, as it will remove the paint from the wall.

Using small nails is allowed. You can also mount a small shelf or TV bracket on the wall using appropriate fixing. Please read our apartment maintenance guidelines before making any fixings or installations. Please also note that your apartment complex may have its own apartment complex-specific instructions in which making holes may be prohibited. If necessary, please contact our customer service for more information.

In some of our apartment complexes you can make use of our free Joo Fixer service. The always helpful Joo Fixer is happy to help you put up pictures and mirrors or install light fixtures. If your apartment complex offers this service, you can book it in the Jooppi app.

You'll find them in the Jooppi resident's app and here.

Many of our apartment complexes offer parking spaces to rent. Please contact our customer service about the availability. If there are available parking spaces, we offer one parking space per apartment.

If your apartment block has a sauna department or a laundry room, you can find more detailed instructions for booking your shifts on the Building info page in the Jooppi app.

If your apartment complex has a shared car, you can find the instructions for reserving it in the Jooppi app on the Building info page.

For example, Omago shared cars can be reserved by downloading the Omago app. When you register as a user, just enter the registration code of your apartment complex. You can check the code from Jooppi. For more detailed instructions, visit omago.fi/en/help . Omago customer service is available 24/7 at +358 20 127 7799 and via email at asiakaspalvelu@omago.fi

Smoking is always forbidden inside the apartments. The ban applies to all cigarettes and alternative smoking products.

Some of our apartment complexes are completely non-smoking, meaning that you can only smoked in a designated area in the yard. In the rest of apartment complexes smoking is allowed on the balconies. Please consider other residents’ well-being when smoking.

If you need more home keys, please send us a service request in the Jooppi residents' app.

Please contact our customer service in the Jooppi residents' app, via email at joo@joo-kodit.fi or by phone on 020 766 1390 (weekdays from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Cost: mcc/lnc.)

Don't forget to notify the maintenance company of your building so they can help the new resident if they ever forget their keys. You’ll find the contact details in the Jooppi residents’ app. Also, please let us at Joo Kodit know about the new resident so we can update the water fee on your rent bill. Thanks!

Changing homes from one Joo Kodit apartment to another is a carefree option when you find yourself in a new situation in life or you discover a home that's even better for your needs. After living in our apartment for six months, you can request a transfer to another Joo Kodit apartment, as long as your rent payments are up to date and your tenancy has been problem-free.

When you make an exchange, we'll be flexible about your notice period, so you don't have to pay double rent. After the exchange, the minimum rental period for your new tenancy agreement is 6-12 months, depending on the city.

Please let us know which apartment you're interested in, and our rental representative will contact you about signing a new tenancy agreement and terminating the old one.

It's quick and easy to terminate your tenancy of the apartment or parking space in the Jooppi app. Just open the Agreements tab and click on the three dots to the right of the tenancy agreement you want to terminate.

The notice period is stated in your tenancy agreement. However, it’s always at least one calendar month from the date you’ve sent us your termination notice. The tenancy agreement can’t end before the last day of the next calendar month.

For example, if you send us the termination notice on 5 February, the end date of your tenancy is 31 March. If you have any questions, please contact our customer services via the chat in our Jooppi app, via email at joo@joo-kodit.fi or by phone on 020 766 1390.

You can find them here.

If you’ve paid a deposit, we’ll return it to you within two weeks of the end date of your tenancy agreement, providing that you've paid your bills on time, left the apartment clean and in good order, and returned all the keys.

You'll find the instructions for returning the keys from the Jooppi app under Your checklist for a carefree move once we've processed your termination notice. If you've allowed email communications from Joo Kodit, we'll also send you the information via email a couple weeks before your contract end date.

You'll find the generic key return instructions for different locations here.

Please contact our customer service if you have any questions, either through the Jooppi app chat, by phone on 020 766 1390, or via email at joo@joo-kodit.fi
