At the latest the day before your arrival.
This is a condition for entering the house, as the access information will only be sent to you once the rental guarantee has been received. In case of late payment, a proof of transfer will be accepted.
At the end of the month, as the rent must have been received by Colive on the 1st of the month.
You will receive a confirmation of receipt by email for the payment of the 200€ and the rental guarantee. For the next payments, you will only be contacted in case of delay.
To avoid any additional charges, contact info@colive.eu with your proof of payment. After the 18th of the month, the rent will be increased by a €25 late payment fee.
The rent is calculated on a pro-rata basis according to the number of nights spent in the house. If you have any doubts, do not hesitate to contact info@colive.eu.
Termination and extension of contract
As stated in the contract, the notice period is 3 months and starts on the first day of the month following the notification of the notice to Colive. An acknowledgement of receipt must be received for the notification to be valid.
If you wish to leave before the end of the lease, we will have to find a new tenant for the room. The rent for the room is due until the re-letting process is completed. Our team is in charge of the search and there is an administrative cost of 300€ (due only if successful).
If you have been in the house for more than 8 weeks, and only in this case, we offer you the possibility to find someone to take over the room to avoid this administrative cost. Please note that this person must be approved by Colive.
Contact us at info@colive.eu. Hopefully, the room is not yet rented.
As soon as possible! Reservation requests can be sent several months in advance.
