FLEMISH LEGISLATION
The Housing Agency in Flanders has developed specific rules regarding accommodation for labor migrants. This includes, among other things, a different set of standards concerning room living for temporary workers.
PERMIT POLICY IN GENK
The City of Genk has chosen to develop a specific permit policy for providing housing to international workers. This is not about offering family homes, but about specific rules concerning room living.
If you want more information about this permit policy, please contact the Housing Department of the City of Genk.
Minimum quality standards
In addition to the distinct regulatory framework and the rules associated with the specific licensing policy of the City of Genk, it is of course important to take into account the minimum quality standards for rental properties.
1.4 MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS OF RENTAL HOMES
The landlord must ensure that the property is in good condition at the start and remains habitable during the rental period. Minor maintenance work or repairs may be the tenant's responsibility. As a landlord, be sure to check this carefully.
Publication Ziezo
The brochure ‘Ziezo... Handy for tenants’ clearly explains who is responsible for what in a rental home. You can read what you as a tenant need to maintain and what the landlord must repair.
