Tenants Association 

The signing of the renewed cooperation agreement between Tenants Association Voorne aan Zee and Woonbedrijf was celebrated in Rockanje on September 25, 2023. Alderman Daan van Orselen and the chairman of the Tenants' Association Ger van Heck signed the new cooperation agreements.

Woonbedrijf Voorne aan Zee made a proposal to the Tenants Association to come to renewed cooperation agreements. During two inspiring and valuable joint working sessions the cooperation was reshaped. The first session focused on the agreement and how to deal with each other. In the second session, concrete agreements were made about which topics Woonbedrijf involves the Tenants Association in and what that means for the future.

Are you not yet a member of Huurdersvereniging Voorne aan Zee and would you like to be? Then you can sign up. You can do so by sending an e-mail to hvwestvoorne@gmail.com. The membership fee is EUR 9.00 per year. 

Payment problems  

You may unexpectedly find yourself (temporarily) in financial trouble due to circumstances, which prevent you from paying your rent on time. This can happen to anyone.
Do not get stuck with this, it will only increase your arrears and the costs and make it increasingly difficult to get rid of them.

You can contact us to arrange a payment plan or temporary extension of payment. You can contact the housing consultant by phone between 9 a.m. and 11 a.m. Monday through Thursday by calling 14 0181 or you can send an email to nl

Rent reduction 

Higher energy prices, more expensive groceries - at Woonbedrijf, we notice that more and more tenants are finding it difficult to pay all the bills. Last year we gave our tenants who were entitled to do so the opportunity to apply for rent reductions. Over 17 percent of our tenants were able to take advantage of this. Woonbedrijf strives to keep rents affordable for our tenants. Did your income drop after 2021 and did this last at least six months? If so, you can still apply for the rent reduction in 2024. More information can be found on the website of the Ministry of the Interior and Kingdom Relations.

Projects & maintenance

New construction of 42 social housing units on Patrijzenlaan in Oostvoorne

In early October, the first official moment took place where Alderman Daan van Orselen unveiled the construction sign and signed the agreement.

On the construction site, the first activities are now clearly visible. After the site was prepared for the ground heat drillings, these drillings were started. Work on the heat drillings was completed before the Christmas vacations. On Wednesday, December 20, the drilling rig for the foundation piles was erected. The first drilling pile that went into the ground was also the last foundation pile to go into the ground in 2023.

Drilling operations restarted as of Jan. 15. Bored piles were deliberately chosen to prevent as much inconvenience to the surrounding area as possible. Construction company Schrijver is now working toward starting work on infra, sewerage and foundation. 

Rental properties 

Properties were advertised on Woonnet Rijnmond in December. Just before the holidays, the registration period closed. In total, Woonbedrijf received 2,724 registrations. Woonbedrijf will use the coming period to allocate the homes. This is expected to be completed by mid-February and the new tenants for these homes will be known.

Planned maintenance 

Every home needs maintenance. With major and minor repairs, Woonbedrijf makes sure your home stays in good condition. Every year we give parts of our homes a maintenance check. That may be painting or cleaning work. But sometimes we also replace window frames, pointing or installations in the home. We call this planned maintenance. On our website you will soon be able to find the overview of planned maintenance for 2024 nl 

Woonbedrijf Voorne aan Zee is responsible for providing good housing for its tenants. If something is broken in a home, such as a broken window, a clogged sewer or you have a leak, as a tenant you should submit a repair request to Woonbedrijf. Woonbedrijf has its own service available, which can pick up some of those reports. In addition, contractors perform many repair requests. They also take care of the maintenance of the houses when moving house.

For questions or repair requests, always contact Woonbedrijf first. You can contact the supervisor by telephone on weekdays between 08.00 and 09.30 by calling 0181 - 40 80 52 or via nl

Do you have questions or complaints about your central heating boiler? Then you can report this to Energiewacht West Nederland. You can report malfunctions 24 hours a day, 7 days a week via telephone number: 088 555 32 50.
