Deviation from this date is allowed, as long as no more than once every 12 months there is a rent increase. The rent increase is calculated only on the rent and not on additional supplies such as gas, water and light.<br\/>In the social sector, the government determines what the maximum rent increase can be based on the tenant\u2019s income. In the &#8220;Vrije Sector&#8221;, different rules apply and the landlord may, to some extent, determine the amount of the annual rent increase. This depends on the provision included in the lease and of these, the following options are possible:<br\/><br\/>\u2013 An indexation clause whereby rent is increased annually by a percentage derived from the Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS) inflation rates. The rent goes up by the national average price trend. The rent goes up by the national average price trend.<br\/> <br\/>&#8211; A mark-up percentage; rent goes up by the Consumer Price Index (CPI) plus a mark-up percentage. As of 2021, rents in the free sector may be increased by a maximum of inflation + 1%. In the &#8220;Social Sector&#8221;\/Segment, rents are even frozen.<br\/><br\/>&#8211; A market rent provision is a provision in the lease agreement that allows the rent to be increased substantially in one lump sum after a few years. In this way, the rent is brought in line with the market rent of comparable properties. When using this clause, the landlord must substantiate the rent increase based on comparable homes in the neighborhood.<br\/> <br\/>&#8211; No clause for rent increases included; landlord may propose any rent increase. The tenant does not have to agree to the proposed rent increase. The landlord can then go to court. If the judge still considers the rent increase reasonable, the tenant is given the option of paying the new rent monthly or termination of the lease by the court.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-acebdd8e gb-accordion__item\" data-transition=\"slide\">\n\n<button class=\"gb-button gb-button-91434d4a gb-accordion__toggle\" id=\"gb-accordion-toggle-91434d4a\"><span class=\"gb-button-text\">What is the importance of an Energy Label?<\/span><span class=\"gb-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" width=\"1em\" height=\"1em\" ariahidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" class=\"gb-accordion__icon\"><path d=\"M416 208H272V64c0-17.67-14.33-32-32-32h-32c-17.67 0-32 14.33-32 32v144H32c-17.67 0-32 14.33-32 32v32c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h144v144c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h32c17.67 0 32-14.33 32-32V304h144c17.67 0 32-14.33 32-32v-32c0-17.67-14.33-32-32-32z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" width=\"1em\" height=\"1em\" ariahidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" class=\"gb-accordion__icon-open\"><path d=\"M416 208H32c-17.67 0-32 14.33-32 32v32c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h384c17.67 0 32-14.33 32-32v-32c0-17.67-14.33-32-32-32z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span><\/button>\n\n\n<div id=\"gb-accordion-content-c6aa2031\" class=\"gb-accordion__content\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-c6aa2031\">\n\n<p>As of 2008, an energy label is mandatory for the sale, rental and handover of houses and apartments.
