Appointment for viewing the apartment:

If you view the apartment or meet your future housemates in a WG, you should remember that this conversation is like a job interview. That means:

  • be on time
  • wear nice clothing
  • be friendly and smile
  • take your ID, your decision on asylum, your pay slip, CV and reference letters with you
  • take photos of the apartment – then you can remember the apartment better and you can proof if there are faults
  • Ask for the energy performance certificate and have a look at the electronic devices. The worse the grade on the certificate, the higher your energy costs are going to be.
  • Attention – in Austria you do not have to pay before you have signed the contract! Have a look at Google to see what a rental contract looks like.
