We provide service around the clock, every day of the year.
Your living arrangements and those of your neighbours are governed by these rules of order, which we expect all our residents and their guests to follow.
We want all our residents to live comfortably and safely. We have a code of conduct that we expect all our residents and their guests to follow.
Respecting these rules is about respect for others and is in everyone’s interest. In addition to the rules of order, our residents must comply with laws and regulations and the terms of the tenancy agreement.
At VAV, our values include taking care of our residents and employees. We want our residents and employees to be well.

The VAV houses are quiet at night from 22:00 to 07:00. During this time, you should not do laundry or anything else that might disturb the neighbours’ peace at night.
Please remember to give everyone who is working on our properties a working peace to ensure that they can take care of our residential buildings. Our employees must not be disturbed on site or online.
Common areas such as outdoor storage, laundry and drying rooms are for the exclusive use of our residents.
