Every rental property has a maximum rental price according to the legal points system. Rental prices are based on multiple housing characteristics (square meters, garden, amenities, etc.). Facilities are valued with points and m2 are decisive. Many tenants think that location or housing shortage also lead to a higher rent, this is not correct! Nevertheless, rents in popular locations are often a lot higher.
Ronald (20) has been renting the front of a terraced house together with one of his friends since 2015 (see photo). He pays €525,- basic rent and for 40m2.
The house comes with a point total of 80 and a basic rent of € 389.33. Ronald and his roommate get retroactively approximately € 1450, - in overpaid rent back. Ronald and his roommate save € 1628.04 in rent annually through Robin Hood.

We are Robin Hood. We were founded in 2019 out of sheer necessity. The disrupted rental market meant that we had to report to the front. Robin Hood works with you to counter unfair rental practices and strives for a better position for the tenant. We guide you through the jungle of legal rules, take control and keep you out of the wind as a tenant. We have a tactic for every case to give you the best result.
The government has created the points system to calculate the basic rents of housing in an objective way. For parts such as square meters, facilities in the kitchen or bathroom, points can be earned. Each point corresponds to a maximum basic rent and the higher the number of points, the higher the maximum basic rent. The landlord will have to justify the basic rent that is requested.
You can let the landlord know by e-mail or letter that you do not agree with the rent increase. Always state in your notice of objection why you do not agree with it. Common reasons are: an overrun of the maximum rent, or formal errors in the proposal. Need help? Please let us know.
The landlord must comply with the law. As a tenant, you are fully entitled to check the rent and, if necessary, correct it. If the landlord does not cooperate, the Rental Committee can make a binding decision as an independent body.
Then you first have to object to the landlord. Does the landlord not want to agree to a change in the final bill? Then the Rental Committee can be asked to rule on the objection after three weeks. Need help? Please let us know.
