Not eligible for housing after signing acceptance form?

Questioner

We also signed an acceptance form. This is equivalent to a rental agreement. We were happy. Now suddenly we don't get the house. Because we supposedly earn thousands of euros more than on the tax authorities' documents. This difference is approximately 16,000 euros. Really impossible. They have calculated 17% inflation costs. How so?

Lawyer

It is important to first check which income data exactly the landlord used to come to this decision, and whether it is correct. If there is a difference between the actual income and the calculation of the landlord, we advise you to contact the landlord to correct these misunderstandings. In addition, it can also be useful to gain insight into how the landlord calculated this income, in particular the aspects of inflation costs. If there is still a conflict after that, the possibility to object depends on the terms of the rental agreement or acceptance form that you signed. We recommend that you definitely review these documents. If the above advice does not help, it may be advisable to seek legal assistance for your specific situation. Hiring a lawyer or attorney can help to understand and resolve the legal conflict. --------------- Stichting Rechtswinkel.nl is a national organization with students and volunteers.
