Last week, the House of Representatives approved a proposal by the VVD to allow longer temporary rentals of housing. The maximum duration of a temporary lease goes from two to three years and there will be a possibility to extend temporary contracts once.

Three years

Currently, the maximum duration of a temporary lease for independent housing is two years. The maximum duration of a temporary lease will go to three years.

Extension and minimum rental period possible

In addition, it will become possible to extend temporary leases of one or two years. This will be allowed once and, as a result, the maximum temporary rental period may not exceed three years. The proposal also states that there will be the possibility of including a minimum rental period in the lease. The maximum length of such a minimum rental period is one year.
