Residents of the Bomenland flat in Den Bosch have successfully rejected the huge rent increase that Swedish real estate magnate Heimstaden – who owns the residential complex – wanted to implement this summer.

In October, there is 1 webinar planned in which we will discuss the next steps in the campaign and the walk to the Rent Commission. Questions? Sign up for the webinar!

Dear supporters,

In our fight for affordable housing and against annual rent increases, we are organizing a national meeting on September 21 in Den Bosch for local WWDH groups and active participants in the campaign. 

It is July 1, the day on which the highest rent increase in 30 years is introduced, which means that this is also the day that our promotion starts again!

Since 1993, rents have increased by 141%! By linking the rent increase to wage increases and inflation, tenants can count on a rent increase of up to 5.8% in the social sector and 5.5% in the private sector in 2024. This makes it the highest rent increase in 30 years! The objectionable income-related rent increases of €50 to €100 will also be maintained. While our wages have been moderated, rent has become unaffordable after years of cuts, mismanagement and market forces. A quarter of tenants cannot make ends meet financially after paying the rent.

Since 1993, rents have increased by 141%! This year, many Den Bosch corporations, investors and private landlords will add more than 5% on top of that! While our wages have been moderated, rent has become unaffordable after years of cuts, mismanagement and market forces. A quarter of tenants cannot make ends meet financially after paying the rent! To tackle the housing crisis, the government must structurally invest in public housing instead of unilaterally passing the bill on to tenants.

The Wooncafé020 is an informal meeting place where experiences and...
ideas about living in the broadest sense of the word are exchanged.

Fortunately, posters, stickers and flyers are available again to show your entire neighborhood that you are also refusing the rent increase this year!

Since 1993, rents have increased by 141%! This year, the Hague corporations will add another 5.3%! While our wages have been moderated, rent has become unaffordable after years of cuts, mismanagement and market forces. A quarter of tenants cannot make ends meet financially after paying the rent! To tackle the housing crisis, the government must structurally invest in public housing instead of unilaterally passing the bill on to tenants.
