Checklist for your letter to your subtenant

Contact:
•	Something unexpected can always crop up, or someone might have a question. Provide key contact details.
WiFi:
•	Write down your WiFi network and give them the password or even create a guest network.
•	Note for your subtenant also your Internet provider, ideally including phone number of the hotline.
TV:
•	TV helps combat wanderlust – or not. 
But make sure the remote control is clearly visible, just in case. If there’s a guide to the device in a drawer somewhere, lay it out or write down a brief explanation of how your TV works yourself.
Sound system:
•	You can’t tell your subtenant what to listen to – on the contrary. Give them details of your stereo system.
Washing machine:
•	How does the washing machine work in your building? Is there a washing schedule or do you have your own machine?
Dishwasher:
•	The few buttons on a dishwasher should be self-explanatory. Not the case? Then leave your subtenant a note.
Fusebox:
•	Tell your subtenant where to find the fusebox. So, they don’t have to make an emergency call when a fuse blows.
Cleaning, etc.:
•	Cleaning: almost everybody hates it, but almost everybody does it – with varying degrees of success. What are your expectations in terms of cleanliness when you return to your apartment? Write down your expectations here or discuss the issue during handover.
Rules on rubbish disposal and official rubbish bags:
•	Are there rules on rubbish disposal in the building? Give this to your subtenant or note down here when the bins are collected. You can also tell your subtenant where they can buy official rubbish bags.
Sorting rubbish and disposal points:
•	As world champions in sorting waste, we love passing on our principles. Let them know how this works in your area. What gets sorted? Where do you dispose of rubbish?
More arrangements:
•	Is there anything else you want to let them know? Little things that need to be done, like watering plants, airing the place regularly, etc.
