6.) How long do I need to wait to become a Guardian?
Depending on the region that you are looking for living space in, a waiting list applies. If you are not contacted by us immediately, it means we do not have any living space available to offer you at the moment. Due to the popularity of Property Guardianship, we generally have more applicants than we have living spaces to offer.7. Can I make (permanent) changes to my room?For all permanent changes, like painting the walls or drilling holes in them, written permission is needed. In all cases, you are expected to return the room in the same condition as you have received it in.
