Rental conditions and documents

Income Requirements
To be eligible for a property at LIV, we apply the following income guidelines:

• Your gross monthly income (excluding temporary allowances) must be at least 3 times the monthly rent.

• If you rent together, the combined gross income must be at least 4 times the monthly rent.

Salaried Employees
We count your gross salary including holiday allowance. Bonuses or other variable allowances are not included.

Self-Employed Entrepreneurs
Your gross monthly income is calculated based on the average annual profit before tax over the past 2 years, divided by 24. A standard deposit of 2 months’ rent applies for entrepreneurs.

Pensioners
30% of your available monthly pension income may be added to your gross monthly income.

Additional Income

• Child support does not count.
• Partner support counts fully.
• Assets: 10% of your assets divided by 12 may be counted towards your monthly income.

Renting Together
Both incomes are fully (100%) counted for the combined income requirement.

Other Conditions

• Minimum rental period: 12 months, unless otherwise stated.
• Deposit: standard one month’s rent for all LIV properties.
• Diplomatic clause: possible, upon consultation.
• Guarantor: allowed after consultation. The guarantor must meet the same income criteria and provide the same documents as the tenant.
• Studios: suitable for single occupancy only.

Submitting Documents
You can easily and securely submit your documents via the rental portal on our website. If your partner or guarantor also has documents, you can add these in two ways:

• Via your own profile, under a separate section (not mixed with your personal documents).
• Via their own profile that they create in the portal.
