What to know before you rent

Compiled by the flatapartments.com team from the sources linked on this page · Last reviewed 2026-10

Deposits
Under the Residential Tenancy Law the security deposit may not exceed two months' rent. (source, 2026)
Tenant rights
If the flat is sold, a lease binds the new owner only if it has been recorded in the Land Register, so tenants on longer leases may want it registered. (source, 2026)
