<h1>Private Sector rent increase 2026,</h1>

<p>The rent for private sector homes increases every year on 1 July. A rent increase is necessary to maintain and improve our homes.</p>

<p>Each year, the Dutch government sets the maximum rent increase. You can read more about this on <a client-url="https://www.rijksoverheid.nl/onderwerpen/woning-huren/vraag-en-antwoord/wat-is-de-maximale-huurverhoging-in-2025" data-last-type="url" href="https://www.rijksoverheid.nl/onderwerpen/woning-huren/vraag-en-antwoord/wat-is-de-maximale-huurverhoging-in-2025" ng-link="" target="_blank" tokenbased="false">the website of the Dutch government</a> (in Dutch).</p>

<h2>On 1 July 2026, Lieven de Key may increase the rent by up to 4.4%</h2>

<p>This is based on inflation from December 2024 to December 2025 (3.4%) + 1%.<br />
Lieven de Key follows this maximum rent increase, unless your tenancy agreement states a different percentage.</p>

<h2 class="seperated">Where will the rent increase go?</h2>

<p>We need the rental income to maintain, improve and build new homes. In the incoming years, we will deploy extra people and resources to make our homes more sustainable. Lieven de Key’s ambition is to improve all homes with energy labels E, F or G by 2028 at the latest. By making them more energy efficient, we contribute to keeping housing costs affordable. This is becoming increasingly difficult because the cost of maintenance increases every year. By raising the rent, we can continue to maintain all homes well and make them more sustainable.</p>
