Tenancy law: Right to a safe home
Questioner
I will be renting a house from the housing association as of November 1, 2016. A new kitchen needs to be installed and the walls need to be done because they are damp and moldy. The house is now empty The previous tenant was temporarily there because of a housing association because old houses were demolished and new ones were built. So all the same housing association. The resident has already moved into the other house. Now my question is, if I rent from November 1st, do they still have to install a new kitchen and repair the walls? Is that normal or should they not do that in advance? They say that this is only possible when I move in so I will rent a house without a kitchen and a wall that is moldy what can I do or is the housing association right?Lawyer
No, certainly not if you have to wait a long time for it, because a house that is rented must have at least a working safe facility for cooking and a toilet. A temporary reduction of the rent is reasonable if it lasts longer than two weeks.Neem de volgende stap
