Renting your home out can offer countless advantages but it also brings with it many responsibilities. Below you will find an overview of what to take into account when renting out your home.
Point system for renting out your home
The first thing you must do when you want to rent out your home is to establish the number of points for the property. What is the point system comprised of? How is the number of points for your property derived? What should I pay attention to during the counting of points? Read all about the point system when renting out your home here.
Energy label and energy certificates when renting out your home
An energy label provides information about the property’s energy efficiency and is expressed in the form of a letter. Having an energy label is legally required upon the rental or sale of a home. You can apply for an energy label at www.energielabelvoorwoningen.nl. (energielabelvoorwoningen.nl) You will be required to login with your DigiD and then you must complete a questionnaire about your home. You will also be asked to upload evidence of energy-saving measures to the site. After all of the information has been provided, you will be able to select us in the menu. We will then go over your application, register it and mail it to you. When renting out your own home, you will also be required to have an energy certificate which provides more detailed information about the property and is an actual, physical document. Having an energy certificate will add points to the total point count of your home. This will increase the likelihood of renting out your home in the free sector and that is why having one is vital. De BeheerCompagnie is licensed to make and distribute these certificates.
To register for an energy label costs € 15 incl. VAT. An energy certificate costs € 162 excl. VAT or € 248 excl. VAT in combination with the point count. Please feel free to contact us.
Structural inspection when renting out your home
When you buy a home it is advisable to have a structural inspection be carried out. This inspection will provide insight into the structural condition of the home, including the maintenance costs you can expect in the future. This is valuable information and an integral part of the purchase investment of a home. We inspect the home and record its condition in an inspection report. The price for this inspection is € 265 excl. VAT. Please feel free to contact us.
Maintenance and cleaning when renting out your home
Is your home ready to be rented or are there maintenance issues that need to be addressed? It is important that all maintenance problems are taken care of and your house is thoroughly cleaned prior to the rental period. This will keep tenants from complaining later. What’s more, a thorough cleaning of the home gives a clear indication that you are taking a professional approach to the rental and that you expect the same from the tenant upon his/her termination of the rental agreement. Here too, De BeheerCompagnie can offer assistance. Please feel free to contact us for an appointment. Prices available upon request. As soon as your home is ready to rent out, you can begin with the temporary rental of your home. To rent out your own home seems easy, but in practice it is everything but. It is possible to outsource the management of your home so you won’t have to deal with the hassles of renting out. De BeheerCompagnie gladly offers you two types of property management:
