Subletting

WHAT IS SUBLETTING

You can sublet your room to another student when you are away for some time.

WHAT IS AN OFFICIAL SUBTENANT?

While you're away, someone else will temporarily live in your accommodation. And when you come back, you've got your comfortable surroundings to come home to. You just have to ask our permission first and arrange everything properly with us.

If you have an all-in price in your contract you are not allowed to sublet your room. This means you will continue to pay the rent and we will contact you in case the subtenant causes any problems. And if he or she creates such a mess that we even want them to leave, you will have to play your part in bringing this about.

COLLECTING RENT FROM YOUR SUBTENANT

We think it's normal for you to want your subtenant to pay rent. The only condition is that you are not allowed to make a profit this way. So the rent you collect from them can at most amount to what you are paying us – perhaps with the addition of some form of payment for water and electricity.

ASSIGN A SUBTENANT

Do you like the sound of this arrangement? Be sure to send out the form on time, though, because it will take a while to process everything and make agreements. This is how you assign a subtenant:

1. Find someone who can be your subtenant. They must be a full-time student, but not necessarily in Eindhoven. We will not find you a subtenant and we will not accept an intermediary.

2. You can arrange everything online at the page change my tenancy.

We'll get back to you as soon as possible!
