I have lived in an Avain apartment for a long time. Will I get any reward for that?

Yes! When you have lived in an Avain Asunnot apartment for 10, 20 or 30 years, you can choose from a number of special benefits. We have chosen the most popular alteration work as rewards for long-term residents, and you can choose which benefit you want to use for your home. Alternatively, you can choose to be exempted from one month’s rent in which case you will only pay separate compensation based on usage, such as water and/or a parking space.

Because the purpose of this arrangement is to reward long-term housing, only residents who have a disturbance-free living record over the past two years can receive the benefit.

Long-term residents’ benefits:

  • New laminate flooring
  • A kitchen makeover, including doors, countertops and the space between the counter and cupboards
  • New benches, wall panelling and glass door for the sauna
  • A bathroom makeover, including new furniture
  • Space-saving sliding door in the hallway or bedroom
  • Painting of walls, including an effect wall
  • New stove, dishwasher and fridge-freezer (or separate refrigerator and freezer)
  • Terrace boarding in the yard of the detached house
  • Wooden floor decking and a planting cabinet for the balcony
  • Rent-free month

Please note that all of these benefits are not available for all apartments. For example, a sliding door cannot be installed in all closets.

Please contact the property management yourself when you have been a resident for 10 or 20 years. The long-term resident benefit must be used within one year. For example, if your contract started on 1 October 1 2010, you must redeem the 10-year benefit by 1 October 2021.
