Cancellation Policy:-

Cancellation before you move in:

To confirm your application, an advanced rent payment equivalent to one week’s rent is required. On moving in, this money will transfer to your rent account, providing you have met the terms in the Agreement.  You also need to read and sign the Assured Shorthold Tenancy Agreement (the “AST”) before you move in.

Once you have paid your advanced rent payment and signed your AST online you are agreeing to take up your place within the accommodation and are bound to pay the AST fee in its entirety. Any subsequent request to cancel will require you to find a student to replace you. This carries an administration fee of  €100.

If you were unsuccessful in obtaining a college place in Dublin through the CAO system, aparto will refund the Advanced Rental Fee.

If you change your mind:

After signing the agreement, the terms and conditions of the agreement, including all payments, are legally enforceable. Once you have signed the tenancy agreement you must complete the advanced rent payment set forth in the rent schedule of the agreement. By signing the agreement you have 7 days to complete the guarantor information. In the event that the guarantor does not sign the agreement, the agreement will remain enforceable against the tenant.
