The Verhuurderheffing is a Dutch tax on public housing. The tax caused a reduction of 100.000 public houses[1] and prevented the construction of a further 100.000.[2] The tax cost renters 1.7 billion euros per year.[2]

The tax was implemented under the Rutte II cabinet under the guise of “deregulation”.
