The Model Tenancy Agreement serves as a standardized template for residential property rentals in the Netherlands, designed to ensure compliance with Dutch housing law while protecting the interests of both landlords and tenants. This document is particularly valuable for private landlords, property management companies, and housing associations who need a legally sound basis for their rental arrangements. The agreement incorporates all essential elements required by Dutch law, including provisions from the Dutch Civil Code (Burgerlijk Wetboek), the Housing Act (Woningwet), and relevant rental price regulations. It can be used for both regulated and unregulated housing sectors, with adaptable sections to accommodate different types of residential properties and rental arrangements. The Model Tenancy Agreement is regularly updated to reflect changes in Dutch housing legislation and market practices.
