The main registration is in full swing!

During the main registration, you must submit all your personal documents and details for your profile to be screened. You can use this to select the apartments that meet your housing requirements and indicate your preferences. After completing the main registration, the rental team will screen your profile and provide you with feedback.

Have you already started the main registration? Make sure you provide all your details in full via my main registration portal.

The main registration period has closed. We will start the first allocation round on 10 April 2025.

Not registered yet? Register before 23 April 2025, 23:59 hours. Then your registration will be included in the second allocation round of The Cohesion Lighthouse Eindhoven.

Screening and approval of registrations

We screen each registration based on the documentation provided.

Allocation phases

The apartments will be allocated based on a predetermined order in which first the income requirements in accordance with the NIBUD guidelines are checked, then key professions are considered, and finally the remaining candidates are selected at random.

Accepting apartments
After the screening, we will approach the selected candidates. We will inform you which apartment has been assigned to you. This must be accepted or refused within the deadline mentioned in the e-mail. Once you have accepted the apartment, you will receive the rental agreement to sign. Finally, you will receive two invoices: one for the first rental period and one for the deposit. You can pay the deposit via Saveon. Invoices and deposit must be paid fourteen days before the start of the rental agreement.

Not selected for an apartment? Don't panic! We have your screened profile in our system. As soon as an apartment becomes available that matches your profile. It can be allocated to you. So keep a close eye on your e-mail.

The salary of both the tenant and any co-tenant are both counted as 100% towards the income requirement.
For equity of more than €50,000, 10% may be counted towards the income requirement.
There are a number of sectors that qualify for occupational priority. Among others, it applies to professions in healthcare, education and police. You can find an overview of all professions in the FAQ.
