Affordable allocation requires that housing corporations in Rijswijk, such as Rijswijk Wonen, take your income into account. The income standard determines whether you qualify for a social rental property in neighborhoods such as Innen or Remmerden. For 2024, the threshold is €47,699 for a single person and €52,671 for a multi-person household. Corporations in Rijswijk must allocate 80% of social rental properties to households below this standard, and 90% within the 'affordable' rent price up to €808.06 gross per month, appropriate to the local housing market around Stadhuisplein.
If your income exceeds the standard, you may lose priority on the waiting list for Rijswijk properties. In case of exceedance due to temporary factors, such as a one-time bonus or benefit in the Haaglanden region, you can object to the corporation. The Housing Authority monitors compliance nationally, but local inspections also apply to Rijswijk. In case of violation, you can file a complaint with the corporation, the Rent Tribunal or the court in The Hague. Prove your income with recent tax returns and payslips. This prevents allocation of properties that are too expensive in Rijswijk, which leads to rent arrears and problems in neighborhoods such as Sion. Always consult the current income thresholds on rijksoverheid.nl and check the website of the municipality of Rijswijk for specific local regulations.
