Many people pay too much rent every month. Are you wondering whether you might be paying too much basic rent? Sign up below and we will contact you as soon as possible to schedule a rent check.

Did you know that there is a maximum permitted rent for all rental properties and rooms? The maximum rent is calculated using a points system. This system is also known as the housing valuation system.

Whether you rent a room, studio, apartment, or an entire house, all tenants can check what the maximum permitted rent is. Points are awarded for factors such as floor space, kitchen facilities, outdoor space, and the energy label.

You can sign up for a free rent check below. We will then contact you to schedule an appointment. During this appointment, a Steunpunt employee will visit your home. We will use a laser to measure the surface area of all rooms and look at the facilities available in your home. For example, what appliances are in the kitchen, what facilities are in the bathroom, and whether you have outdoor space. This appointment takes about half an hour on average.
