Frequently Asked Questions

Is it mandatory to have student status to live at the property?

The vast majority of their residents are students and young professionals, but all requests are reviewed based on the specific conditions of each location.

Is shared accommodation possible at the property?

Shared accommodation is allowed in the property’s residences (depending on the size of the units and applicable regulations).

What is an inventory report and what is it for?

The inventory report is a document prepared between the resident and the property. It is completed when the resident moves in and again upon departure. Issued in several copies and given to each party, it must be kept throughout the rental period. The move-in inventory is carried out on the day the keys are handed over (not necessarily on the day of signing the lease). It records the condition of the unit when the resident moves in. When moving out, the inventory report describes the condition of the apartment at the end of the lease. It confirms that residents who have maintained their unit return it in good condition to the property.

Are bed linen and dishes provided in the accommodation?

A dishware kit is provided in all the property’s apartments. On request, they can also provide a disposable linen kit (price upon request).

What documents are required for housing assistance applications?

When applying for housing assistance, you’ll need to provide the following documents:

A copy of your ID
Proof of your student status
Proof of income, or if you have none, a sworn statement confirming you received no income in the previous year
Your bank account details (RIB) if you want the assistance to be paid directly to you
Your CAF beneficiary number, if you already have one

Tips: Like many administrative procedures, processing by CAF takes time. They recommend preparing your application as early as possible to start receiving assistance quickly. Note: The first month of your lease is considered a “waiting month” – housing assistance is not granted or paid during this period. Housing assistance is paid in arrears (e.g., assistance for September rent is paid in early October), starting from the 1st day of the month following the date you meet all conditions. Example: If you move in on September 25, you’ll be eligible for assistance starting October 1, paid in early November.

Can I keep my apartment during the summer months?

You may keep your rental over the summer. Rent remains the same during this period (depending on the residence). Keeping your apartment allows you to avoid paying new application fees and repeating entry/exit inventories.

I'm moving to another city for my studies or internship. Are there benefits if I book another property residence?

If you are already a resident and want to book another residence, file fees may be waived depending on the residence, as long as there is no gap between contracts (subject to availability). To find out if your future residence offers this, contact the residence manager directly.

How long does it take to get my security deposit back?
