Please note: We only contact candidates we want to approach for the respective housing.
For each housing option, we select the right resident tailored to whom a short notice period should never be a problem. In the selection process, we make an initial choice from the current registrations regarding the available property. The following factors are considered:
– Time of registration
– Alvast's selection criteria
- Number of registrations
– Specific candidate profile per project/housing
– Your flexibility/availability
When selecting candidates, we closely adhere to the following requirements:
- Minimum age of 18 years
- Regular daily activities through work and/or study
– Sufficient regular income from work and/or student financing

– Tidy individuals with a responsible attitude
– Flexible attitude regarding the 28-day notice period
- Pets are not allowed
Multiple candidates register for available housing on a daily basis. After registration , a confirmation email is sent. If you pass the initial selection round and meet our criteria, you will receive an email requesting documents. These documents will be reviewed and possibly approved, after which contact can be made for an introductory interview. If the interview goes well from both sides, housing may be offered depending on the current availability.
Please note: An introductory interview does not guarantee housing.
