Guarantee via Söderberg & Partners
Less tied up. Just as secure.
- The guarantee equals four months' rent and replaces a traditional deposit.
- The same rules as a deposit — Tenancy Act §§ 3-5 and 3-6.
- The price is 12 % of the security amount. Example: NOK 10,000 × 4 = 40,000 × 12 % = NOK 4,800 in premium for a three-year tenancy.
- You are liable for the security amount and any claims beyond it, exactly as with a deposit.
- The premium is not refunded when the tenancy ends.
- Disputes follow the same rules as for a deposit.
The premium is not refunded when the tenancy ends, but you avoid locking up 45 360 kr more than the premium. The guarantee gives the landlord the same security as a deposit (Tenancy Act §§ 3-5 and 3-6). Provided via Söderberg & Partners.
Practical information
16 things every tenant should know
01
Contents insurance
Tenants must have their own contents insurance — usually NOK 80–200 a month.
02
Cleaning
Clean regularly — especially the extractor fan and kitchen units, where grease and dirt collect.
03
Parquet
Use little water. Dry mop for regular cleaning, a damp cloth for stains.
04
Painting
Only by written agreement with the owner — colour and who pays agreed in advance.
05
Pictures and fixings
No drilling or nails without consent. Approved shelves and curtain rails stay when you move out.
06
Worktops
Hot pans and wet glasses leave marks. Wipe spills at once and oil wooden worktops regularly.
07
Drains
Clean the bathroom and kitchen drains regularly — remove hair, dirt and food waste.
08
Drying clothes
Not over doors or radiators. Ventilate well while laundry dries.
09
Airing and ventilation
Air vents must always be open — also in winter — to prevent damp, mould and rot.

Safety
Check the smoke alarms work. Know where the extinguisher or fire hose is, and check the extinguisher yearly.

Light bulbs
Replace bulbs and downlights as needed; all must work when you move out.
