Moving In
How exciting! You're going to live with us 😄 Here's everything you need to know.
Before you move in
The first thing you need to do is sign your contract that you will get from us on e-mail. You can sign with BankID, SMS, click-signature, and Draw. When you sign your contract, you also accept our Residence regulations.
There are no insurances included in our rental agreement. We recommend having both home contents insurance and travel insurance when living in student housing. Check whether you are covered by your parents' insurance before buying your own.
Moving in
How you get the key or access to the home depends on where you live. Find out what it's like in your city here:
Physical keys
If you live in one of these buildings, you can pick up your physical keys at the Sammen Service Centre at Parkveien 1:
Alrek, Fridalen, Grønneviksøren, Hans Holmboes gate, Harald Hårfagres gate 7 and 9 and Øyjordsveien.

Remember to bring valid identification when picking up the keys.
If someone else is to pick up the keys for you, that person must bring a letter of authorization from you. The authorization must include the name of the person picking up the keys.

Before moving in, you have to:

- Allow background updates.
- Open the app once the key is active.
How to use the digital key:
Log in using the phone number registered in the Housing portal.
iPhone: Open the app, tap the key, and hold your phone against the reader.
Android: Hold your phone against the reader.
The key becomes active at 3:00 PM on the day your contract begins. With the digital key, you can go straight to your student housing using the key on your phone.
After you have moved in
Removing furniture and hanging up posters
It's understandable that most people want to make the residence feel their own. You're welcome to do so, but if you want to remove/replace furniture that belongs to the residence, you must store them in a safe place and put them back when you move out.
Avoid making holes in the walls to hang posters etc. Instead, use the picture rails we have installed in our residences 😊
Errors or Deficiencies
Contact us via the Housing portal as soon as possible if you discover any errors or deficiencies in your residence, and we'll take care of it.
