What is the maximum income requirement?

FRIS Vastgoed Management also rents houses below the liberalisation limit (social rent) and houses in the middle segment. Different income requirements apply here, a minimum but also a maximum income requirement. The maximum income requirement is there to ensure that these homes are only let to people with a low or middle income. Per the municipality where the property is located, a housing permit is required. Once you have been allocated a house, you need to apply for the housing permit at the relevant municipality. The municipality checks whether you meet the income requirements and then grants you the housing permit. A housing permit is not transferable. For more information, visit the website of the municipality where the house is located.

I do not meet the income requirement myself, can someone be my guarantor?

With most owners, renting with a third-party guarantor is not allowed. If this is allowed, it will be mentioned in the advertisement of the residence concerned.

I am a student, can I rent at FRIS?

We unfortunately do not rent to students unless otherwise mentioned in the advertisement.

Can I rent a residence with a friend?

Most owners allow you to share the property with a (working) friend. If a residence does not allow this, it will be stated in the advertisement of the residence in question.

Do I have to pay a security deposit if I want to rent a residence?

We work with different owners where the amount of the deposit varies. In any case, it is never higher than twice the basic rent. The deposit is fixed during the rental period.

Is there a rent increase every year?

Yes, there is an annual rent increase. You will receive an annual notice of your rent increase. In your rental agreement, you can find when your rent will be increased.

When will I be assigned a residence?

Only those candidates who are selected to view are finally eligible to enter the hiring process. Of the candidates who have submitted the mandatory documents on time, the dossier will be assessed. If several valid files are submitted, a draw will be held.
