How to apply as a tenant<\/h2><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Porvoon Kodit<\/em> has about 2,500 rental flats available, of which approximately 350 become available for rent each year. The majority of these are reasonably priced, state-subsidised rental flats. In selecting tenants for these flats, the applicant\u2019s housing need, income, and assets are taken into account. The selection process follows the guidelines provided in the State Subsidised Housing Construction Centre\u2019s Resident Selection Guide.

All our rental flats are let as based on submitted housing applications. Once you have submitted your application, you are automatically included in the selection process for all flats that match your application. We aim to offer flats to applicants with the greatest need, prioritising those with the most urgent housing needs, lowest incomes, and the least assets.
You can view all Porvoon Kodit<\/em> properties on our \u2018Explore Properties\u2019 page. Each property\u2019s page indicates whether it is state-subsidised or privately financed.

Porvoon Kodit<\/em> rental flats are always applied for via a housing application. The application is primarily submitted using the electronic form or, if necessary, a paper form. Complete your application carefully and describe your housing needs comprehensively. If you have several factors affecting your housing need, please include them all in your application.

We will check your credit information. By submitting an application, you agree to the processing of your information in accordance with the Porvoon Kodit data protection description. Please note that attachments are not submitted in advance with the housing application. Should we be able to offer you a flat, we will request the necessary attachments at the time of the offer.
