My daughter rented a small flat in…

My daughter rented a small flat in Frederiksberg. At moving in many faults were noted in the move in report but not all. This was by no means a well-kept clean place and there were several faults such as scratches, stains and bad paintwork to name a few.

At moving out Heimstaden really knew how to charge! For example, it appears they want the whole floor redone for a few scratches in selected spots my daughter does not even admit she did. There are other claims also such as for example the paintwork which was pretty second class when she moved in as noted in the report. Can it be policy of Heimstaden to charge such a large deposit in order for them to then charge renters for restoration (in my opinion improvement) when they move out?

This has so far not been a good experience and will be disputed in due course. If I was to rent with Heimstaden I would take out my microscope and go through the place inch by inch. I wouldn’t let them rush me.

11/11/2023
We asked Heimstaden to provide evidence that damages were caused by my daughter. We also asked for evidence about what actually was done for all the money charged. They chose not to provide this. I will provide updates as this case progresses through the proper channels. I will encourage everyone with the same problems to put it on trust pilot and complain to Heimstaden. This experience has not been good. Thank you

Dear J,
Upon reviewing the matter with our move-out inspection team, I note there is already a conversation in progress regarding the move-out process and the associated repairs.

We assure you that the inspection was conducted fairly and thoroughly. It is also apparent from the breakdown that we have absorbed costs which ordinarily would be the responsibility of the tenant.

It is important to us that you understand we do not profit from these repairs, which are carried out by third-party contractors, resulting in additional costs that are not typically our burden.

Please feel free to reach out to the property administration if you have any further questions or concerns.

Kind regards,
Andrea, Heimstaden


Dear J,
We are sorry for your review, but can assure you that Heimstaden does not try to impose any amounts on tenants that we cannot justify. It is very far from our values and working methods. We also do not make any money on renovations of homes when moving out, as this is outsourced to external contractors who perform the task. We always mark up all conditions thoroughly and document them with pictures.

If you wish, I can ask my colleagues in the operations department to review your move-in and move-out report, and get back to you with a detailed explanation. I therefore ask you, via Trustpilot, to share your contact details, so I can take it further internally in the company.

You are of course always welcome to contact our administration, either by email or by phone.

Best regards,
Andrea, Heimstaden

Consider your deposit gone

I am not here to bash this company because they took almost all of our deposit. I am just sharing our experience and helping others understand what to expect when renting a place from an agency like Heimstaden.

We rented an apartment from Heimstaden for a year. The whole process of viewing the apartment, signing the contract, and handing over the keys is very smooth and professional. During our stay, we had a couple of issues and the company was responsive to our inquiries. Considering the apartments are not cheap we expected that level of service. Still, we appreciated it. But then came the move-out day.

We stayed in this apartment only for a year and with no kids and pets we kept it really clean. Plus we did extra cleaning before moving out. The apartment looked like the day we moved in, with a few holes in the wall and the ceiling that are easy to fill. After a long and thorough inspection by a very serious and unfriendly staff, we were given a move-out report with all the things that had to be fixed. There was a mention of the walls, doors, and window frames being in "Dårlig" or a bad state which was clearly a lie. The inspector said this was normal procedure and they always paint walls and sand floors after every move-out. He realized how exaggerated the report was so he said the company would pay half of the costs for sanding the floor and made us feel like they were doing us a favor!

Anyways, six weeks after our move-out date we had to follow up to receive our deposit. What we got back was a joke. Almost 80% of our deposit was gone. A receipt of things they fixed was attached and it was insane! Everything had to be painted twice, which clearly didn't need to be and they were some items in there that were not agreed on. I am not saying they charged us for things they didn't do, because the receipt looks pretty legit. But the things they did in the apartment were not necessary considering how well we had kept the place.

At the end of the day, these things are expected when you are dealing with an agency and we were ready to face that. But taking all of your deposit after a year and while we had taken such good care of the apartment did feel like a scam.

Dear Ehsan,
We are pleased to hear that the entire process of renting an apartment with Heimstaden has been satisfactory. However, it is unfortunate if there has been a misunderstanding during the move-out process.

Let me begin by assuring you that here at Heimstaden, we do not attempt to impose any charges on tenants that we cannot justify – this is completely contrary to our values and practices.

Moreover, we do not profit from the refurbishment of properties upon move-out, as this task is entrusted to external construction firms who carry out the work.

We consistently document and photograph all conditions thoroughly. If you wish, I can request my colleagues in the operations department to review your move-out report. This way, you can personally verify whether everything has been conducted appropriately and is fully supported by the available photographic evidence. Therefore, I kindly request that you share your contact details via Trustpilot, so I can address this matter internally within the company.


Best regards,
Andrea, Heimstaden

Smooth moving out inspection by Heimstaden

The inspector was on time, he was very friendly, explained the process clearly to us and he then checked the most important parts, including electric devices, but without being extremely picky. The flat was clean, freshly painted and sanded and varnished by professionals so the process was smooth and fast.

This company WILL STEAL your money

This company steals your money. So disappointed, first it seems all good, the rental properties are nice, the maintenance is ok. Then when you move out, they will refuse to pay your deposit and will charge you extra on top of it. Please read the reviews before you work with them, and if I can give you one advice, keep away!!!

Dear Vincent,
We are sorry to hear about your experience with Heimstaden, but we strongly disagree with the accusations you have made.

Our goal is to deliver good service experiences to all our tenants - also when moving out. We close all moving-out accounts as soon as possible; however, we cannot do so until we have recieved invoices from third parties. Also, we have no interest in withholding anything more, than repairing costs from the deposit.

If there are any specific aspects of the moving-out inspection that you would like us to provide further clarification on, we encourage you to contact our customer service team. We are here to assist you and will make every effort to address any concerns or queries you may have.

Kind regards,
Andrea, Heimstaden

It was a nice experience during the move in. However, if the electricity, water & heater meter details would have been inspected infront of the tenant it would be nice. Now I am clueless what is the readings, how I will be contacted by the companies. Also, some defects still there, like water drain issue in the kitchen, we just landed on 8th morning to the home after move in inspection and the sink is not draining the water, I tried to contact the customer care and it's not possible to reach them even after 15mins of call wait. Also, I am not able to login to the Minbolig portal for the last two days, even after sending mail to customer service team.

Hi Manoj,

It's great to hear that you had a positive moving-in experience. It's just a service from our side to read both electricity and water meters before the move-in, as most tenants find this time-consuming. You can always get a copy of the meter readings from customer service. If you are still experiencing issues accessing Min Bolig, please let me know, and I can pass on the message internally. I will send you a private message via Trustpilot so that you can provide me with your contact information.

Have a wonderful day 🌞

Stay clear of heimstaden

Since Heimstaden took over my apartment complex, we've have had SO many rent increases you would not believe it! These are of course besides/on top of the regular ~2% increases everybody basicly has.

"You got a new appartement buzzer - boom ~1500 DKK/yearly increase".. for ~400 tenants. Except NO ONE got a new apartment buzzer, it was only the one in the STAIRWAY. nobody asked for it, and no issues was present to begin with and no difference in function or anything like that - it even has it's old plate looking exactly the same.

"New doors for the stairway entrences - boom, 1800DKK/yearly increase!".

"You need new doors for your appartement as well, that will be 2800 DKK/yearly, boom!".

What sort of horrible door subscription is this, for getting new doors you DON'T want/need every year, or what ..

Besides them being a typical greedy blackstonish corporation, their service (rather lack of!) for their tenants is horrible - they cherry pick if they want to answer you on email or not, but have no issue spamming your inbox with emails about just about anything. It got so out of hand at some point that I unsubscribed the letters (unsubscribing ones lanlord, how crazy is it to feel that nessecary?)

But guess what! they just re-add my email without my knowledge or consent - which they btw didn't get to begin with either! I wrote them, and got the explanation that it's not possible to opt out of their emails, and it was just how it was! Until I rof course eminded Heimstaden about a tenants right to get informed via letter.

And even though I have a hard time seeing it as a success, it would seem that all they send me now, is about once every quarter, when they figure out yet a new way to make the rent go up.

I would recommend everybody to stay as long away from this company as you can, they are way better options out there, and everybody deserves better than Heimstaden!

Dear Mikkel,
We are sorry to hear about your experience with Heimstaden. Fortunately, we cannot recognize your claims of greediness, but we apologize if you have not received the excellent service, we strive to provide to all our tenants.
It is quite normal for us to adjust the rent levels on certain properties, just as it is done with owner-occupied homes and in the general housing market.

The property you reside in dates back to 1933, and therefore, it is expected that ongoing maintenance and improvements are necessary to upkeep the condition of the building. We are also legally obligated to fulfill these responsibilities under the tenancy law.
Our administration department has notified you about an increase in improvement costs for new doors, rent adjustments based on expenses, as well as taxes and fees, in accordance with the current regulations.

As a tenant at Heimstaden, it is not possible to waive the information regarding your lease, as that would hinder our ability to maintain a tenancy relationship. Therefore, you will continue to receive ongoing communication from us.

If you have any further concerns or questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to our customer service. We value your tenancy and aim to address any issues promptly and effectively.

Kind regards
Andrea, Heimstaden

Great experience of seeking a house with Nana

If you have met Nana in one of your open house experience then you are exactly lucky 🙃 From the very beginning she was very patient and interested even when I was late for the viewing or had a lot of questions. She never left the questions unanswered and helped about the queries even it’s not directly related to the building. Thanks to her approach and great energy I did enjoy my adventure of finding a place of acommodation. I believe that she raised the Standard in terms of customer satisfaction and made our process easier than we forecasted
