Housing & property
Renting, subletting, buying and selling homes, vehicles and other property. Each document below is written and reviewed by Swedish lawyers, has one fixed price, and comes with an English explanation of the rules behind it.
Residential lease agreement
Swedish: HyresavtalA lease for a home, setting out rent, notice periods, deposit and what each side is responsible for. Swedish tenancy law is heavily tenant-protective and much of it applies whatever the contract says.
Sublet agreement
Swedish: AndrahandskontraktFor letting your apartment to someone else while you are away. Which law applies, and therefore what rent you may charge, depends on whether the home is a tenant-owner apartment or a rental — the agreement makes that explicit.
Co-ownership agreement
Swedish: SamäganderättsavtalRules for property owned by several people: shares, costs, decisions, and what happens when one owner wants out. Without it, any single co-owner can force a public auction of the whole thing.
Car sale contract
Swedish: Köpekontrakt bilA private car sale in writing: vehicle details, mileage, price, payment, handover and the condition it is sold in. Between private individuals a car is normally sold as-is, which makes what the contract says about known faults decisive.
Tenant-owner apartment purchase contract
Swedish: Köpekontrakt bostadsrättThe contract for buying or selling a bostadsrätt privately. It must be in writing, name the apartment and the price, and be signed by both parties — and the housing association must approve the buyer as a member.
Property purchase contract
Swedish: Köpekontrakt fastighetThe purchase contract for a house or a plot of land. Swedish law sets strict form requirements — writing, both signatures, the property, the price and a transfer declaration — and a contract that misses one of them is void.
Allotment garden transfer agreement
Swedish: Överlåtelseavtal för kolonilottTransfers an allotment and the cabin on it to a new holder. The land is leased from the association or the municipality, so the transfer covers the cabin, the fixtures and the position in the association — not the land itself.
Boat sale contract
Swedish: Köpekontrakt båtA private boat sale in writing: hull and engine identification, equipment included, price, handover and condition. Engine hours and known faults belong in the contract, since a private sale is normally as-is.
Motorcycle sale contract
Swedish: Köpekontrakt motorcykelA private motorcycle sale in writing: registration, mileage, price, payment, handover and condition. Sold as-is between private individuals, so the description of the bike's condition is what counts if there is a dispute.
General bill of sale
Swedish: Köpekontrakt lös egendomA short contract for selling any item of movable property — furniture, machinery, equipment, tools. Identifies the item, the price, the payment method, the handover and the condition sold in.
Contractor agreement
Swedish: HantverkaravtalWritten terms for building or renovation work in a home: scope, price or hourly rate, timetable, materials, changes and payment stages. Consumers have strong statutory rights here that cannot be contracted away.
Dog sale contract
Swedish: Köpekontrakt hundFor buying or selling a dog: identity and chip number, pedigree, health checks, vaccinations, price and what happens if a hereditary condition appears. Standard practice with any serious breeder.
Horse sale contract
Swedish: Köpekontrakt hästA horse sale in writing: identity and passport, age, use, veterinary examination, trial period, price and what the horse is sold as. Values are high and disputes are common, which is exactly why the contract matters.
Lodger agreement
Swedish: InneboendekontraktFor renting out a room in a home you live in yourself. A lodger has weaker protection than an ordinary tenant, but the rent, the notice period and which shared areas are included still need to be agreed in writing.
Land lease agreement
Swedish: ArrendeavtalA lease of land rather than a building: a plot for a cabin, farmland, grazing or an area for a business. Swedish law divides leases into distinct types with different protections, so naming the right type is the first thing the agreement does.
Right of use agreement
Swedish: NyttjanderättsavtalLets someone use part of your property — a track, a jetty, parking, hunting, a pipe — without transferring ownership. Unlike an easement it is personal, so it does not automatically survive a sale of the property.
