Continue Your Everyday Life as Normally as Possible

When your home is undergoing renovation or has been affected by water or fire damage, you may need to move out temporarily. In these situations, the most important thing is to quickly find a safe and comfortable place where everyday life can continue as normally as possible.

A furnished Kotimaailma apartment offers a homelike solution when your own home is temporarily unavailable. You get a fully furnished and equipped apartment where you can stay throughout the renovation or repair work – with more space, privacy and freedom than a hotel room.

If you are not yet sure what type of apartment would best suit your situation, contact us. We will discuss your needs with you and find a suitable temporary housing solution.

Do You Need Temporary Housing During a Renovation?

A plumbing renovation, bathroom renovation, major home renovation or other repair work can make staying in your own home difficult or even impossible. Temporary housing allows you to move away from the disruption and gives you a comfortable place where everyday life can continue.

A furnished apartment is particularly suitable when you need a temporary home during:

• a plumbing renovation
• a bathroom renovation
• a major home renovation
• repairs following water damage
• repairs following fire damage
• other damage or repair work
• any situation where your own home is temporarily uninhabitable.

Kotimaailma’s furnished apartments are ready for you to move in. Each apartment comes with furniture, a fully equipped kitchen, household appliances and the essentials you need for everyday living. This means you do not have to set up a new home from scratch at a time when you already have plenty of other things to take care of.

Why Can a Furnished Apartment Be a Better Option Than a Hotel?

A hotel can work well for a short stay, but during a longer renovation or after damage to your home, a furnished apartment often provides more space and makes it easier to maintain your normal everyday routines.

In a furnished apartment, you have:

Your own kitchen
Prepare your own meals whenever it suits you.

Living and sleeping areas
Enjoy more space for everyday living, relaxing and sleeping than in a typical hotel room.

Laundry facilities
Take care of your laundry conveniently in your temporary home.

Workspace and internet connection
Remote work and normal working days can continue even while your home is being renovated.

A fully furnished apartment
There is no need to arrange furniture or basic household essentials for your temporary stay.

Flexible length of stay
The duration of a renovation or repair work may change, so it is important that your temporary housing solution can be as flexible as possible.

Kotimaailma has more than 1,000 furnished apartments across Finland, allowing us to look for a suitable option based on your needs and preferred location.

What If I Don’t Know What Kind of Apartment I Need Yet?

No problem. You don’t need to have the perfect solution figured out in advance.

When your own home is being renovated or is temporarily unavailable due to damage, your temporary housing needs may depend on factors such as:

• how many people need accommodation
• how long you expect to need temporary housing
• where your home is located
• whether anyone in your household needs a workspace
• whether you need more than one bedroom
• whether you have a pet
• whether you need a parking space
• how quickly you need the apartment.

Tell us about your situation, and together we will determine what kind of temporary housing solution best suits your needs.

If you cannot find a suitable apartment directly through our online store, please contact Kotimaailma. Our experienced team will help you explore the available options and find a solution that meets your needs.
