Subletting Your Apartment

Renting out your apartment requires careful planning – here’s everything you need to know about applying, the rules, and tips for a smooth and secure sublet.

Board Approval Required

To sublet your apartment in BRF Klädstrecket 24, approval from the board is required – even for short-term rentals. Subletting without permission may result in forfeiture of the right to use the apartment, in accordance with the Condominium Act.

Application Process

Complete the application form and email it to the board at styrelsen@kladstrecket24.se. The board meets once a month, so submit your application well in advance.
Clearly state the reason for the sublet and the desired rental period.
Acceptable reasons include
- Temporary studies or work in another location
- Trial cohabitation with a new partner
- Internationall Assignments
Note: Financial reasons are not accepted as valid grounds for subletting.

Rental Conditions

Subletting is only permitted to private individuals.
Minimum rental period: three months.
The board grants sublets for up to one year, with the possibility of an extension for another year upon a new application.
Rent must be reasonable and based on the costs of the apartment. You can calculate reasonable rent using this rent calculator.
As of 1 January 2025, the association charges a fee of SEK 490 per month for subletting, to cover administrative costs and the loss of member contributions (e.g., maintenance days, board duties).

Qualifying Period

You must have lived in the apartment as your permanent residence for at least one year before applying to sublet.
After the rental period ends, you must reside in the apartment for at least one year before submitting a new application.

Important Notes

Short-term rentals via Airbnb or similar services are not permitted.
As the owner, you must maintain home insurance with a condominium supplement during the sublet. The tenant does not need this supplement.
The subtenant’s name may not be displayed on the postbox or door. All mail should be addressed using a c/o address.

Appealing a Decision

If your application is denied, you may appeal the decision to the Rent Tribunal (Hyresnämnden). Their decision is legally binding and must be followed by the association.

Renting to a Lodger

These rules do not apply to renting out a room to a lodger, as long as you continue to reside in the apartment. In such cases, no board permission is required.
