Project developer A has bought apartments in an apartment complex, which he temporarily rents out furnished and unfurnished to private individuals on the basis of the Vacancy Act due to a deteriorating real estate market.
According to the Gelderland District Court , there was no short stay, because long-term rent has been the rule rather than the exception, with an average of 18 months’ rent. Furthermore, the tenants were charged with taking care of the inventory and had to pay municipal taxes such as waste levy. The lack of rent protection does not affect the judgment. The court also rejected the appeal on the principles.
