Safety first

NO UPFRONT PAYMENT.
YOU PAY AFTER
SIGNING.

Nothing is paid in steps 01 through 03. You inquire, view the apartment, and then upload your documents, with no money changing hands.

This isn’t a promotion or an introductory offer. This is how every OneHaven rental works.

  • You pay only after you sign

    No upfront payment, no payment to hold an apartment. First the lease, then the money.

  • The deposit can also be provided as a guarantee

    Depending on the building, in installments or before move-in, alternatively as a bank or rental guarantee. The amount is stated in the lease before you sign.

  • One transparent monthly rent

    No hidden fees. Furnishings are included everywhere; internet and utilities are listed in advance in the offer for each building.

  • Verified landlords, digital lease

    Eastside, Roomments, and The Bloom Homes have passed the Trust Check. Five checks are required, otherwise there is no seal.

The process

FROM APARTMENT TO KEY.

Four steps, all digital. What you do, what we do, and what we can already say about timing.

  1. 02
    VIEW

    In person or live by video call, even from abroad. You’ll view your future apartment or an identical reference apartment.

    YOUR PART

    You decide whether to come by or view the apartment by video.

    OUR PART

    Someone from the local team walks you through an apartment in the category you inquired about.

  2. 04
    LEASE &
    MOVE-IN

    Sign the lease digitally, pay the deposit depending on the building in installments or before move-in, or provide a guarantee, then get a simple key handover and the landlord confirmation (Wohnungsgeberbestätigung) for your address registration (Anmeldung) at the Bürgeramt. You only pay after you sign.

    YOUR PART

    Read the lease and sign it digitally. You only pay after that.

    OUR PART

    We prepare the lease, talk through how you’ll pay the deposit, hand over the key, and issue your landlord confirmation (Wohnungsgeberbestätigung) for address registration (Anmeldung).

We’ll respond to your inquiry as quickly as possible, usually within 24 hours, except on weekends.
