My question is, can I do something about this? One house has been given to refugees, completely renovated and everything new, while the other is completely furnished and equipped. It's been given away. Can I do anything about this? We have an expectant child and can't seem to get a house, while we live in a single-occupancy apartment?\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Lawyer\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n I've edited your question. Be careful with such statements; they can easily be construed as libel, with all the associated criminal consequences.\n\n The kinds of stories you describe in your question have been circulating since the very beginning of housing associations. They are usually urban legends and therefore simply untrue.\n \nOften other reprehensible intentions, such as an aversion to certain population groups, also play a role in bringing these kinds of stories into the world.\n\n Housing associations are not government bodies. They are private entities that are allowed to pursue their own policies within certain limits.\n\n If you believe the housing association is treating you unfairly and can prove this, you can contact their complaints committee: http:\/\/www.woonzicht.nl\/smartsite.dws?id=64\n\n","brand":"Rechtswinkel.nl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55117312360797,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.rechtswinkel.nl\/en\/products\/vragen-21919-ik-zit-bij-voor-huurhuizen-nou-krijg-ik-te-horen-dat-de-huizen-gewoon-weg-gegeven-word-aan-mense","provider":"Rechtswinkel.nl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
