Tenants' Rights in Case of Forced Termination of Tenancy in Tilburg

In Tilburg, tenants have strong statutory rights in cases of forced termination of tenancy, such as the landlord's bankruptcy or expropriation in neighbourhoods like Oud-Zuid or the Reeshof. The tenancy agreement automatically transfers to the new landlord (Article 7:219 DCC). In case of eviction due to default, the landlord must first issue a warning and await a judicial decision. Tenants in Tilburg cannot simply be put out on the street; a garnishment-free amount applies and protection is provided via the municipality. In the event of urgent termination by the landlord, the tenant may annul the termination if the reason is not urgent. Rights include the right to be heard and right of reply before the Rent Tribunal and appeal options before the District Court in Den Bosch. In Tilburg, the Rent Team Tilburg offers free advice and mediation in tenancy disputes, especially in social housing by housing associations such as WonenBreburg. During crisis situations, such as corona deferral, additional protection was provided via Tilburg's special assistance. Document everything: correspondence, payments, and reports to the Rent Team. Seek help via Juridisch Loket Tilburg or the Woonloket at Schouwburgplein. Other than mutual agreement, these formal safeguards provide protection against unlawful action. Tenants can claim damages in case of unjustified termination, with priority on housing security in the municipality of Tilburg. (212 words)
