Benefits of renting a home at Samtrygg
Screening of ads
We carefully review all of the ads before they are published on our platform and make sure to inform all landlords about applicable laws and regulations when you sublet an apartment. We also inform landlords about how to receive the proper permits and how to calculate a reasonable rent. Our aim is that you as a housing applicant feel safe that the housing rentable from us is in accordance with Swedish law.
No deposit (if you are creditworthy)
Samtrygg will carry the whole risk as long as you as a housing applicant are creditworthy. If you are approved when we do a credit check you do not have to pay a deposit. This is all to reduce the risk of fraud. If you are not approved you can choose to either pay a deposit or have a guarantor. If you do not have a Swedish social security number you cannot submit to a credit check.
No advanced payment frauds
Frauds are unfortunately quite common on the subletting market. According to the Swedish National Board of Housing, as many as 10% on the subletting market become victims of advance payment frauds and do not receive their payed deposit back. Having Samtrygg as an intermediary removes the risk of advance payment fraud. Samtrygg takes all of the risks.
Payments guaranteed
As a tenant, you pay your rent to Samtrygg and we refer it to the landlord on the specified payment date each month. We guarantee that the rent will be paid on time every month.
