Join the queue if you want to rent an apartment

Queue Rules

ByggVesta’s housing queue is completely free. To keep your place in line, just follow a few simple rules.

Want to rent from us? Create a profile in our queue – free of charge – on our website. From there you can apply for apartments, check your queue points, and upload documents so you’re ready to apply quickly when a home becomes available. To keep your place in line, just follow these rules.

Note: If you receive a lease from us via an external housing agency, you still need to register in our queue to collect queue points with ByggVesta. This does not happen automatically when you receive an apartment.

Queue Rules

  • You earn 1 point per day you are in the queue.
  • You must be at least 16 to join the queue.
  • If two applicants have the same number of points, the registration timestamp decides who gets priority.
  • To keep your points, you must stay active, which means logging into your profile at least once per year. If you don’t log in within that interval, your points are reset and your entire account is deactivated (deleted).
  • ByggVesta never restores points that were reset due to inactivity.
  • When you sign a lease for an apartment, your queue points are reset and you are blocked from applying for another apartment for 12 months from your move-in date. (Note: points for any co-applicant are also reset automatically.) If you sign for a student apartment or youth apartment, you keep your points.
  • You can register interest in up to three apartments at the same time – and may receive offers for all three.
  • Before you can accept an apartment, you must upload documents on 'Mina sidor' that verify, for example, your income. If you have a co-applicant, don’t forget to upload their documents as well. Read more about which documents we need here. We verify uploaded documents only when you are being considered for an apartment.
  • If you express interest in an apartment but don’t meet our income requirements, or if you provide false information, you will be blocked from applying for one year.
  • If you accept an apartment offer but haven’t uploaded the required documents – employment agreement (not required for student leases), the three most recent payslips, and a credit report - you will be blocked for 3 months. If this happens again after the block is lifted, you will be blocked for 1 year.
  • If you cancel a signed lease before move-in, or back out at the last minute after saying yes, you will be blocked for one year.
  • If you decline three apartment offers within a single year, you will be automatically blocked from registering interest in new apartments for one month. To avoid this, make sure to specify your preferences so you don’t receive lots of offers you don’t want.
  • If you apply for a student apartment without being a student, you will be blocked for one year.
  • If you’re offered an apartment and don’t respond to offers twice within a year, you will be automatically blocked from applying for three months.
  • Lease agreements are signed only with the primary applicant. Joint income is considered if a co-applicant will live with the primary applicant. Any assignment/transfer of the lease is governed by tenancy, cohabitation, and marriage law.

Information on Processing Personal Data When You Apply for Housing

For your convenience, this information is available in English. In case of any conflict, the Swedish version prevails.

The personal data you provide in your application/registration will be processed to the extent necessary to assess whether you can be approved as a tenant. This is why we need information from references; by providing their details, you consent to us contacting them. Information may also be obtained from credit reporting agencies and public authorities.

Your data will be processed only within ByggVesta. You have the right, once per year free of charge, to receive information about what personal data we process and how we process it. You can also request correction of your data. Your personal data will be processed only as long as your application is active, and will be deleted when you notify us that you no longer wish to remain in our queue. The same applies if your application is rejected. If the reason for rejection is misconduct in a previous tenancy, we will retain the data for three months after the decision.

For more details on how we process personal data, see our Privacy Policy integritetspolicy.
