Termination of rental agreement

Rental agreements made for the time being are terminated on grounds for termination after the term of notice ((AHVL/481). The term of notice (1 mo) is calculated from the last day of the calendar month in which the agreement is terminated. If a rental agreement is cancelled today, it is in force until the last day of the next month, for which time rent shall also be paid. Termination of the rental agreement is always done in writing. If the rental agreement is done under more than one person's name, all tenants must sign the notice of termination.

If one tenant is leaving, he or she must go to the Sivakka office and terminate the contract in writing for his or her part. Otherwise he or she continues to be responsible for rent and the condition of the flat.

In the event of the death of a tenant, the estate of the deceased person is responsible for fulfilling the rental terms. The normal term of notice is adhered to with regard to the termination of the rental agreement. The administrator of the estate shall send a death certificate or an extract from the population register to the company and terminate the rental contract in writing.

All keys shall be handed over to the office of property maintenance. In the event not all keys of a flat are returned in connection with a move, the lock is reset. The invoice for the work done is sent to the occupant who has moved away. After reaching an agreement with the area house manager, the occupant can make small repairs required to keep the flat in good condition.
