You as a tenant have a duty of care According to the Rental Act, there is also a new law since January 1, 2024 that describes the management of edible fats and oils. It must not be poured down the drain, but needs to be sorted as food waste or left at a recycling center. To help both you and us, you will find the attached document below with useful information on how to think about flushing in your toilet and handling cooking fat when cooking.
For example, neglecting your duty of care as a tenant could mean flushing things down the drain that should not be there. This in turn can lead to costs for restoration, which both we and you reasonably want to avoid. We therefore want to help you as a tenant to take care of your accommodation in the best possible way.
In most new projects, there is an agreement for TV and Broadband for the entire house at a favorable cost for the tenant via Telia. It is clear from the welcome information when you sign a lease with us what applies to this in your particular property. You are always welcome to contact us at uthyrning@slatto.se if you want to know what the rules are on this.
If you have your own electricity contract, you must cancel your electricity contract yourself before you move out. If you live in a property where we charge you for your electricity consumption, you do not need to do anything. Contact us at uthyrning@slatto.se if you are unsure.
One of the reasons is to have fewer public areas. This gives residents a safer home but also cheaper operating costs for maintaining heating, for example. The properties being built are designed not only to meet today's environmental requirements but also for the next 15 to 20 years, which will mean stricter requirements for the consumption of heat, for example.
Our responsibility is to build properties with future requirements and with that comes a change in our behavior to live in our homes today.
It is important that you have home insurance. Burglary, fire or water damage can happen to anyone. You risk being liable for compensation if, for example, your aquarium or washing machine starts leaking and there is damage to your flat, a neighbor's flat or the property in general.
Domestic cats, dogs and small animals are allowed and you are responsible for ensuring that nothing is destroyed in the apartment, stairwell, surroundings or that the animal causes disturbance. You may not have an outdoor cat.
Tenants are allowed to have lodgers as long as they comply with their duty of care, have a good living environment at home and comply with the Swedish National Board of Housing, Building and Planning's standards on the number of people allowed to live in the same apartment.

Instead, we recommend blinds or curtains for protection.
In our newly built apartments, we usually have individual metering and billing of household electricity and water.

Each property has its own rules, so if you are unsure, we recommend that you check your lease or contact us at uthyrning@slatto.se
