Is home insurance compulsory?

. Since the Law of 6 July 1989, multi-risk home insurance is compulsory:

. When you sign your lease, you must give your landlord an insurance certificate that specifies the duration and the risks covered.

. Every year, you must provide your new annual insurance certificate on the anniversary of your insurance contract.

. If you are no longer insured, your lease provides for termination.

. Home insurance must be provided at the latest when the keys are handed over. To make it simpler, Twenty Campus requests this insurance certificate when the lease is signed.

. Insurance is in your interest because accidents may occur and cause damage in your accommodation, in the building or in your neighbour’s accommodation.

. If you do not have insurance, you may be held liable and have to compensate the landlord or your neighbours. The sums involved may be substantial.

. Your insurance contract must cover damage caused by fire, explosions, water, theft, rental risks, and liability to neighbours for a sufficient amount with a solvent insurance company.

. It should cover your property and your liability to your landlord.

You are strongly advised to take out civil liability insurance to cover accidental damage caused to third parties, including cover during internships, school and extracurricular activities.

. When booking, we offer a complete insurance package, Twenty Assur’, which is tailored to Twenty Campus clients.

What are the different housing benefits? AL: Aide au logement – housing benefit. APL: Aide personnalisée au logement – individual housing benefit

Is TC accommodation eligible for housing benefit from the family allowance fund (CAF)?

How can I get this benefit?

. Tenants may receive a housing benefit (AL) which is paid by the CAF. Every year, or during the year if you have a significant change in circumstances, the CAF will calculate the benefits you are entitled to. It is therefore important to report any changes in family or financial circumstances which may have an impact on your housing benefit.

. If you are eligible, the housing benefit (AL) may help pay for part of your rent (excluding additional service charges).

Please be aware:

. The first month is not eligible for housing benefits. Housing benefit is paid from the month after you move in AND lodge your application. There is no time limit.

For example, if you move into your accommodation on 1st September and you apply to the CAF on 2nd September, the CAF will only pay housing benefit from 1st October.

. Remember, housing benefit is only paid for one full month of occupation. If the lease is terminated during the month, housing benefit will not be paid by the CAF. For more information, go to caf.fr.

. Individual housing benefit (APL) is only available for accommodation where there is an agreement in place between the state and the landlord. It is paid directly by the Family Allowance Fund (CAF) to the landlord and is deducted from the tenant’s rent.

What documents are required to obtain housing benefits?

. A landlord’s certificate, which is provided by the Accommodation Service when you sign the lease.

. Proof of identity.

What is third-party payment?

. To make paying your rent easier, third-party payment is possible:

We collect your housing benefit directly and you only pay the difference.

. Please note: You must pay your rent in full until the CAF has processed your housing benefit application.

. Once payment of the first benefit is received, you will pay the balance only.

What happens when Twenty Campus has received my housing benefit?

. The amount will be deducted from your next rent payment. This happens automatically for tenants who have opted for payment by direct debit.

If my lease finishes during the month, will I receive my final housing benefit?

.The full month’s rent must be invoiced for you to receive housing benefit.

For example, if your lease ends on the 28th, you will not receive AL or APL benefits.

If your contract ends on the 30/31st of the month, you will receive AL or APL.

What is TEOM?

. The waste collection tax is payable by the tenant.

It is calculated pro rata on time spent in the accommodation. The tax will be charged each year.

What is rent?

. Rent is the financial consideration for the property rented to the tenant or financial consideration for your occupation.

.Your lease includes an indexation clause: It is applied on 1st January every year.

How is indexation calculated?

.The rent indexation calculation is based on the evolution of the official INSEE rent reference index. Your lease includes the INSEE index reference date used to calculate the revision. If not, it is the last index published on the date the lease was signed. Once you have this information, apply the following formula:

Base rent x (new index:old index) = new rent amount

What is the serviced accommodation package?

. The serviced accommodation package includes access to a range of services that vary depending on the TC Residence. Please consult your Residence description to find out which services are on offer. The serviced accommodation package is included and cannot be separated from the monthly rent.
