We rent out our student housing here on the website. Below you can read how the booking system works and what applies during the booking period.
Booking list
All student housing that is ready for rental is published on the website during a booking period. It ends on the stated bookable until date i.e. the final application day, at midnight.
During the booking period, a booking list is created for each housing unit. The list consists of applicants who wish to rent that unit.
Before logging in, you can only see the total number of bookings for each housing unit. Once logged in, you can see your preliminary position in the queue. When you have booked an available housing unit, your current position is shown, based on your queue time.
Your position in the queue can change throughout the booking period when applicants with a longer queue time book the same housing. For example: if it says 1 of 14 bookings, it means that you currently have the best queue position of the 14 who have booked the same housing. If someone with a longer queue time books after you, your position moves to 2 of 15.
Maximum of three bookings
You can have up to three bookings at the same time. During the booking period, you can cancel and make new bookings so that you always have three active options.
The booking is binding
Each booking is binding, but you can cancel it before the booking period ends. To cancel a booking, go to Your Pages, select Your booked housing and click "Cancel booking".
Your queue time is deregistered when you are offered a housing unit, i.e., when you receive a contract proposal. If you decline the contract proposal, the housing unit will be republished for rental. Deregistered queue time cannot be recovered, but it is possible to make a new housing application.
If you are number 1 when the booking period ends
The applicant who is number 1 in the queue when the booking period ends will receive a contract proposal.
If you are number 1 for several housing units, you will be offred the one you booked first. The other bookings will be removed. On Your Pages you can see the order in which uou made your bookings. The housing unit booked first appears at the top of the list etc.
The contract proposal will appearon Your Pages at midnight, or in some cases, the following working day. You will also receive an SMS and an email.
The contract is signed electronically
You need to accept or decline the contract proposal within the stated time. The deadline is shown on Your Pages and in the message you receive from us. If you do not reply, or if you decline the offer, the contract will be cancelled and the housing unit will be republished.
If requested, you must upload documents showing that you meet the study and membership requirements. These are uploaded onYour Pages.
Once the contract has been signed by AF Bostäder, you will receive a confirmation via email and SMS.
If you plan to move in the future, feel free to make a new housing application to start collecting queue time.
If you do not get the booked housing
If you are not number 1 when the booking period ends, the booking will be removed from Your Pages. You keep your queue time and can continue to book other available apartments.
