Responsible use

Goal and impact

With the rent calculator we aim to offer Rotterdammers the option to estimate the maximum rent of a home in an accessible way. Social housing has a maximum rent. The maximum rent of a home is calculated on the basis of a points system. If the rent of a social housing is above the maximum, a tenant can enforce a rent reduction via the Rent Assessment Committee. This can save a tenant hundreds of euros per year.

Human intervention

With the rent price calculator we offer a handle to calculate the rent. When you use this calculator you can decide for yourself if and what you do with the result, for example contact the Rent Team Rotterdam, they will give you advice and can help you with the solution.

Technical design

The Rent Calculator calculates the maximum rent of a home based on the Housing Valuation System. This is a points system. The calculation by the Rent Calculator is an estimate. It is not an exact amount. The rent of the home depends on the number of points a home receives. The more points, the higher the rent. A home receives points for energy efficiency, surface area, WOZ value and luxury of the home.


The Rental Price Calculator does not apply (!) in the following situations:

- The home is a non-independent living space. For example, a rented room is not an independent living space. An independent living space is a home that can be closed off with a door, has a cooking facility (with sink), its own water supply and drainage and its own toilet. In this case, do the rent price check for non-independent living space of the Rent Assessment Committee.

- The rental price also includes furniture and/or service costs.

Sometimes the outcome of the calculation can deviate (significantly) from the actual situation. This is because the Rent Price Calculator sometimes assumes information that is not certain. The following information is not included in the Rent Price Calculator:

- The house is a national monument

- The house has district heating

- The house has no heating

- The home is a care home

- The house has communal areas and facilities
