Subsidies and Tax Benefits for Landlords in Renovation

Overview of subsidies such as ISDE and tax benefits like EIA/MIA for landlords, and how tenants can use these for rent reduction claims.

1 min leestijd

Landlords can benefit from subsidies such as ISDE for insulation and HR++ glass, or SEEH for solar boilers, under the 70% regulation for large-scale renovations. The Rent Increase Act limits the pass-through of costs to 70%, but tax depreciation via the Energy Investment Allowance (EIA) reduces the net burden. Tenants should verify whether subsidies exceed the 70% threshold, which may result in rent reductions. The Netherlands Enterprise Agency (RVO.nl) manages applications, with housing corporations receiving priority through Woningborg. Tax benefits via the Environmental Investment Allowance (MIA) for sustainable measures reduce corporate tax liability. Tenants may request insight into subsidy receipts through Freedom of Information (Wob) requests. Recent amendments to the Ventilation Act (2024) link subsidies to ventilation upgrades. Abuse, such as double claims, leads to recovery of funds.
