Before you move into your new home, the electricity, water and internet subscriptions need to be set up. For foreign buyers this can take time because of the language and paperwork. At Elka Homes we open all subscriptions on your behalf and link the bills to automatic payment.<\/p>\n
A security deposit is usually charged when a subscription is opened; it is refunded when the subscription is closed.<\/p>\n
A permanent electricity and water subscription requires the building\u2019s occupancy permit (isk\u00e2n). Until then, temporary construction meters are used in the building. For off-plan apartments, we plan the subscription date together with the developer.<\/p>\n
If the documents are complete, electricity and water are usually opened within 1\u20133 working days. Internet installation may take a few days depending on the area.<\/p><\/details>\n Yes.
