A TWO-BEDROOM APARTMENT 51,5 m² IN ITÄ-PAKILA FOR RENT STARTING FROM 1st OF APRIL 2025

There is a vacant two-bedroom apartment 51,5 m² with a living room/kitchen as of 1st of April 2025 in Oranssi‘s residential community located at Solakalliontie 11 A 2 in the neighborhood of Itä-Pakila, Helsinki. The rent is € 718,43/month including internet access. In addition a water fee of €15 per resident will be charged. The house is heated with electricity which is not included in the rent. The apartment doesn’t have a shower. Tenants can use the sauna, the showers and the laundry room that are located in the same building and are shared among neighbors.

The apartment is located in a wooden house along good public transport connections, a few hundred meters away from the nearest bus stop.

The apartment is currently being renovated because of a previous indoor air problem. The indoor air problem has now been fixed, however the apartment is not recommended for those who are sensitive to indoor air symptoms. Before moving in, the selected tenant is expected to actively contribute in the painting and other finishing work of the renovation. There will be guidance on this by the workers of Oranssi.

The apartment can be applied by anyone under 25 years of age including young families, in which at least one of the adults is under 25 years old. Anyone who has already turned 25 is overaged to apply for an Oranssi apartment.

All applications must be handed in personally on following dates at the house in Solakalliontie 11:

SATURDAY 22th of March from 1pm to 3pm
WEDNESDAY 26th of March from 5pm to 7pm

Only the applications that are filled in personally at the location during the above-mentioned times will be taken into account in choosing the new resident.

The new tenant will be informed, and before signing a lease contract they have to present the most recent confirmed tax certificate.

PLEASE NOTE!

Living at Oranssi is communal and the residents are expected to work actively and independently for the community by maintaining and improving their own living environment. The residents share collectively the responsibilities over yard work, communal spaces and the maintenance and renovations of the houses. In addition, the residents have regular house meetings where common matters are discussed and decided. The work done by the tenants enables Oranssi to maintain the rents affordable. However, compared to conventional forms of rental housing, living at Oranssi requires significantly stronger commitment and readiness to invest personal free time to common work and house meetings.

All Oranssi apartments are located in old wooden houses that have not been thoroughly renovated. The level of equipment and comfort of living do not correspond to many of the modern standards of rental housing. The apartments are not recommended for people who are sensitive to indoor air symptoms.

Oranssi Apartments can be applied by anyone under 25 years of age including young families, in which at least one of the adults is under 25 years old. Despite the age limit, the duration of residency at Oranssi Apartments is not limited.

The most important criteria for choosing new residents are: age, low income, the need for an apartment and an interest in Oranssi’s communal, active and independent way of housing. A rent deposit is not required and a bad credit history will not affect your chances of getting an apartment.

There is no waiting list for Oranssi apartments as each apartment is applied for separately. Filling the application form must happen at the location of the vacant apartment during the application period. The application form cannot be submitted by mail or e-mail.  All applications will be handled confidentially. After receiving the applications, the current residents will go through all the applications and propose a new tenant to the board of Oranssi Apartments. The board will then make the final decision based on this proposal. The new tenant will be informed, and before signing a lease contract they have to present the most recent confirmed tax certificate.
