We would rather show you specific, anonymised cases than throw around big round numbers. Here is what tenants we have worked with actually got back, how much their rent fell, and how long it took.
These figures are cumulative across cases we have handled since 2024. Individual outcomes depend on the specifics of each home and on the Huurcommissie ruling. Past results are not a guarantee of future ones.
Names and exact addresses are left out to protect our clients. The amounts, cities and timelines are real and typical of the cases we take.
A studio rented well above its WWS points value. Once the points were assessed the legal rent was far lower, and the overpaid months were recovered.
A classic case of a rent set without reference to the points system. The reduction held going forward and the back payment landed a few weeks after the ruling.
Even a single room can be checked. The points showed the rent was over the maximum, and the monthly saving adds up fast over a tenancy.
The tenant nearly signed for another year before checking. The reduction plus refund made a real difference to a student budget.
How we count. Monthly reduction is the difference between the old rent and the legal rent set by the Huurcommissie. Recovered means rent paid back for the overpaid period. Timelines are from filing to ruling and vary with how busy the tribunal is.
Real words from tenants we have helped. We show our own client reviews in a clean, familiar layout. No borrowed logos, no fake verification badges.
I had no idea my rent was even checkable. Nexus did the whole Huurcommissie process in Dutch for me and my rent dropped by 270 euro a month. They only got paid because it worked.
Honest from the first call. They told me straight away I had a strong case and a real deadline. Got money back for the months I overpaid. No upfront cost, exactly as promised.
As an international student I was scared to say anything to my landlord. Nexus handled all of it in English with me and in Dutch with the tribunal. Calm, clear, no pressure.
The free check showed I was about 190 euro over the legal maximum. Six months later it was sorted and lowered. I wish I had done this in my first year here.
Clear about what they could and could not do. No false promises. The rent reduction stuck and they explained every step so I actually understood my own contract.
Started with the two minute check out of curiosity. Turned out I had been overpaying for a year. They recovered part of it and fixed the rent going forward.
