Frequently asked questions

Please notify us using the contact form or by emailing service@livit.ch if you have lost your key and include your address.

In some cases, it may only be necessary to replace the key, in others, the entire locking system. This is why the costs involved can differ. Please contact your liability insurance provider to discuss who will be liable for any associated costs.

If you have already paid a deposit, you will be able to arrange this with your contact in the property management team and, where applicable, the previous tenant. To organise this, please contact us using the contact form or by emailing service@livit.ch, stating your future address.

PS: Many properties come with detailed floor plans, which we will be happy to pass on to you.

Under tenancy law, tenants are required to repair minor defects themselves if performing the repair or replacing the item does not require any special equipment or expertise. These minor repairs include, for example:

• Replacing kitchen and bathroom accessories (e.g. baking trays, refrigerator accessories such as egg trays, kitchen extractor fan filters, toothbrush holders, shower curtain rails, toilet seats and lids etc.) – please ask your Livit advisor for the makes and item numbers
• Unblocking drains, if possible with simple actions
• Tightening loose screws on sockets
• Replacing light bulbs (bathroom, kitchen)
• Cleaning window shutters and the balcony or patio, provided this is not dangerous if there is no railing
• Greasing hinges

In the event of more serious damage, please contact us using the contact form or by emailing service@livit.ch. Please note the corresponding provisions in your rental agreement.
