If you cannot see the deposit amount in the payment overview in BoligPortal's digital rental contract under § 4, it is likely because different payment dates have been entered for the deposit and the prepaid rent.
In the rental contract builder's step 'Betalinger før indflytning' (Payments before move-in) – that is, when you are filling out the rental contract – you need to select both a payment date for the deposit and a payment date for the prepaid rent, one-time expenses, and the first month's rent.
You can therefore easily choose for the tenant to make the payments on the same or two different dates.
It is most common for payments to be made in two installments.
The deposit is typically paid immediately after the tenant has signed the rental contract, while all other amounts are paid immediately after moving in.
– If you choose the same date for both
If the dates are the same, they will be combined in the overview under § 4 in the final rental contract.
– If you choose different dates
If the dates are different, only the prepaid rent, first month's rent, on-account payments, and other one-time payments will be listed under § 4 in the final rental contract.
Regardless of whether the deposit appears in the § 4 overview or not, all amounts must still be paid by the tenant.
You can always confirm the payment deadline for the deposit in writing or verbally with your tenant, or you can add a section under your § 11 terms describing the deposit agreement.
To do this, simply go to the section 'Special terms § 11', click on '+ Add custom term', and write a suitable text.
Important: The above image is merely an example of how it could be done. It is your own responsibility to ensure that your own § 11 terms are inserted and formulated correctly from a legal standpoint.
If you need help, we recommend that you contact a lawyer or another legal authority.
Note: Digital rental contracts on BoligPortal are exclusively offered in Danish, which is why images and some words in this guide appear in Danish.
