Do you receive housing in Delft that does not suit your situation? Start an objection procedure immediately. Begin informally by complaining to the Delft housing association, such as Vestia or Trivire, within 8 weeks after the allocation decision. No solution? Submit a request to the Rent Tribunal for binding advice; this is free and is handled within 10 weeks, with specific attention to the tight Delft housing market.
If dissatisfied with the advice, you can proceed to the district court (kantonrechter) in The Hague for annulment of the decision. Gather strong evidence: the rental offer, your registration details with DUW (Delft Implementation Organisation for Housing), income proofs, medical reports and possibly an urgency declaration from the municipality of Delft. The Good Landlordship Act obliges housing associations to provide a hearing and opportunity to respond, which is particularly relevant in Delft due to the high demand for student housing and social rental housing.
Success rates in Rent Tribunal cases are around 60%, but in the Delft region this can be higher due to local precedents. Costs: court fee €85 at the district court, fully recoverable upon success. Note the time pressure: carry out the procedure within 6 weeks after rejection, especially in Delft where waiting times for alternative housing can amount to 10 years.
