What does a rent reduction cost?
The huurprijscheck is free. You pay afterwards, only once your landlord has agreed to my proposal or the Huurcommissie has ruled that your rent goes down.
You then pay me a one-off fee of 3 × your monthly rent reduction, including 21% VAT and all costs. After that, the lower rent is all yours, and I don’t take a share of any rent you get back. Three months of lower rent and you’ve earned it back.

Example
If your rent goes down by € 260 a month, my fee is 3 × € 260 = € 780.

yours
If you no longer live there, the same fee applies. That is a one-off 3 × the monthly rent reduction; the rest of what you get back is yours.
What you get for it
- The whole case: the legal work, the contact with your landlord and, if needed, the procedure at the Huurcommissie, including the hearing.
- Kept up to date: you always know where your case stands and what the next step is.
- Honest upfront: if I can’t do anything for you, I’ll tell you.
No ruling that your rent goes down?
Then everything stays as it is, and you pay me nothing.

That your rent reduction applies not only from now on, but goes back to the start date of your contract. You then get back the rent you overpaid in that period, on top of your lower rent.
You pay afterwards, only once your landlord has agreed to my proposal or the Huurcommissie has ruled that your rent goes down. If the chair issues the ruling, I wait three weeks, because that’s how long your landlord has to object. You pay the invoice within fifteen days. If you can’t pay it in one go, get in touch with me and I’ll look for a suitable solution with you, such as a payment plan.
That’s possible up to eight weeks after the ruling, and it doesn’t happen often. My fee belongs to the ruling of the Huurcommissie and stands, even if the court later decides otherwise. Assistance at the subdistrict court is a separate assignment, which I agree with you in advance.
