During the academic year (5, 10 or 12 months contracts), the security deposit equals 500€. An amount of 250€ will be asked to tenants who stay one month or less during summer. It is paid back within two weeks after the general check-out of the accommodation if everything is ok with the room and common areas (that is, if they are in the same conditions as in the check-in date). If they’re not (that is, if something is damaged or missing), part or the totality of the deposit will not be refunded. An additional amount for the energy bills adjustment could also be added or withdrawn from your deposit. It corresponds to the difference between the provisions for charges paid and the actual energy consumption costs over the duration of the contract. Note that, given the difficulties to organize common cleaning between the roommates due to the different departure dates, 15€ will automatically be kept on each roommates security deposit in order to cover the expenses of the in depth cleaning of the common areas.
