Wet betaalbare huur — mid-segment rent regulation extended

The Wet betaalbare huur extended the points-based rent-cap system to the "middenhuur" segment (rents €880-€1,157 range in 2024 points) from 1 July 2024. Landlords exceeding the point-allowed rent in regulated contracts face enforcement. Applies primarily to new contracts; existing contracts transition over time.

Who it affects: Renters signing new private-sector contracts in the mid-rent segment.
