SFS supports the proposal to introduce a legally regulated system for deposits as security for the fulfillment of a rental agreement in private rental of housing.
SFS's view is that it is already relatively common for landlords to request a deposit for private rentals and subletting. It is positive that a secure system for handling the deposit is being introduced.
SFS is generally negative about the deterioration in the requirements for new construction of student housing that is proposed in the consultation.
SFS proposes a change in the requirements for openable doors and balconies. SFS has no other comments on the proposals in this consultation.
SFS is generally positive about the proposals. SFS is primarily positive about the fact that the proposal allows secondary tenants to check whether the home is a rental property, since condominiums have different rules regarding the rent that can be charged (something that the investigation addresses on page 260). If information about the primary tenant is entered into the register, it will also be possible to check who can actually rent out the apartment, which reduces the risk of fraud. An estimated 50.000 students live in secondary housing.
However, SFS has certain objections to parts of the inquiry's proposals.
