Before you move in

Search and view

Compare current rentals with your teaching campus and travel needs. Read the original advert and ask whether students are accepted. Arrange a viewing and never pay before viewing and verifying the landlord or authorised agency.

Your lease and payments

Get a written lease in a language you understand. Check whether it is fixed-term or open-ended, its notice and renewal terms, who may occupy the home and any agency fee. Agree the deposit and conditions for its return in writing and get receipts for every payment.

Residence and utilities

Ask whether you can register your address before signing. Check current residence requirements with official authorities. Confirm which utilities and building charges are extra: kommunaalid in Estonia, komunālie maksājumi in Latvia and komunaliniai mokesčiai in Lithuania. Ask for recent bills rather than assuming a monthly cost.

Handover and safety

Sign a handover record with an inventory, photographs of the condition, meter readings and the keys received. Check the landlord’s ID and ownership or written authority. Be wary of unusually cheap ads, pressure to pay immediately, transfers abroad or cryptocurrency payments; a document image alone is not proof of ownership.
