Such landlords sometimes say that they are going to terminate your lease.<\/p>\n<p>If you have a contract for an indefinite period, the landlord cannot actually evict you. This is only possible if you have failed to pay the rent several times or are a frequent nuisance. If you have a contract for a definite period, the landlord must respect the legal notice period.<\/p>\n<p>It may happen that a landlord cuts off facilities such as gas, water, electricity, internet or television. In that case, always make a written report to the landlord about the problems. If the facilities are part of your lease, the landlord is obligated to fix the problems.<\/p>\n<p>If harassment and threats become protracted, it is wise to keep a log of the incidents. If possible, you can also make video recordings or audio recordings. Once sufficient evidence has been gathered, it is possible to start proceedings against the landlord.<\/p>\n<p>Tenants can always report the matter to the police, and students can also go to the <a href=\"https:\/\/gemeente.groningen.nl\/en\/reporting-undesirable-rental-behavior\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rent Harassment Helpdesk<\/a>.
