Update about your rent from July 1

At the end of April, you received a notification about the annual rent increase. You might have seen in the news that the government wanted to freeze rents in 2025 and 2026.

It’s now official: the rent freeze will not happen. The government has decided not to submit the proposed law for a rent freeze.

What does this mean for you?

• The previously announced rent increase will go ahead as planned on July 1, 2025.

• Starting in July, you’ll pay the new rent amount. Please note: this amount includes an advance payment for service costs. We’ll inform you soon about the 2025/2026 service    costs budget.

• The Tax Office (Belastingdienst) will also use this amount for your housing allowance (huurtoeslag). You don’t need to take any action.

Why was this decided?

The rent freeze would have had a big impact on new housing projects and sustainability plans, and there wasn’t enough political support. That’s why the proposal has been withdrawn.
