Terminate the tenancy agreement

Are you moving? If you read the steps below, you will know what to expect when canceling the lease.

1. At least one calender month in advance

We recommend that you terminate the tenancy agreement 3 months' in advance. This increases the likelihood that a new resident will be known when you leave. You can coordinate matters and arrange takeover with the new resident.

The notice period is at least 1 full calendar month. This means that there must be at least 1 full calendar month between the day you give notice and the actual termination. For example, do you file a lease termination notice on April 4? Then the earliest the lease can be terminated is June 1. The full calendar month in this example is the month of May. 

There cannot be more than 3 calendar months between the filing of the notice and the actual termination of the lease. In the example of filing a lease termination notice on April 4, the actual termination is no later than August 1. In this example, the three calendar months are the months of May, June, July.

2. Preliminary and final inspection

During the preliminary inspection, we check whether the house is in good condition and whether any changes have been made. We indicate how the house must be delivered. At the final inspection, we check whether the house has been delivered as agreed.

3. New tenants and take-over

Take-over of items is only possible if a new tenant is known in time. When you terminate the lease, you will receive a form on which you can record agreements about the take-over.

4. Hand in keys

You hand in the keys on the date and in the manner that you have agreed with our rental manager. Where and when you will deliver the keys is stated on the admission form. This has been received during the admission of your home.

5. Final settlement

You will receive a departure note from us on which the final invoice is stated. Outstanding amounts are always settled with the final settlement. The latter applies to any agreed reimbursements for Self-Employed Provisions (ZAV). And also for the settlement of costs if the house has not been delivered as agreed.
