SELECTION PROCEDURE

Rotsvast determines which candidates are invited based on the order in which emails are received. Due to the expected high number of responses, not all candidates can be invited. Your email must include at least the following information:

• Name of tenant(s)
• Explanation of household composition
• Gross annual income of tenant(s)

Responses that do not meet these requirements will not be considered.

Invitations are sent in order of receipt, and for viewings: full = full.

After the viewing, candidates are screened for income and reliability using various (public) registers. Tenants must successfully complete this screening with 5 stars, the highest score in our screening tool (Properize). The final decision to rent the property lies entirely with the owner. If multiple candidates pass the screening, the selection will be based on income, screening results, and personal situation. You may explain your personal situation during the screening.

Candidates who are not selected after screening are entitled to further explanation and may review the screening report.

IMPORTANT

Rotsvast represents the interests of the owner, who prefers renting the property as soon as possible. Once a complete screening is finished, Rotsvast will immediately present the dossier to the owner. If a dossier is accepted, any dossiers submitted afterwards will no longer be considered.

It is the responsibility of candidate tenants to submit a complete dossier as quickly as possible. Rotsvast will not actively inform candidates about the progress of other applicants. In a tight housing market, Rotsvast assumes that candidates understand the importance of acting quickly.
