It’s very common that the new tenant candidates would like to see the apartment before making a decision of renting it. VOAS has a right to organize a showing of the apartment in case you don’t give permission to give your contact information to the next tenant.

This way everybody wins; you save time and the next tenant candidate gets a general view of a new apartment. You wouldn’t only save your time but also you would a big help to VOAS in the process of renting an apartment.
