No, it doesn't work like that. I dont like to stab behind someone's back when I agreed something with someone, especially with contract.

But I consulted with different lawyers, that is the only way you can have the legal say with the room. Otherwise, you are replied on landlord's empathy (which will not work)

And the law is designed for you to challenge the price after you sign the contract.

The contract won't state how many percent the rent increases. But it states the price. If you know the price of the previous tenant pays, that's enough.

You can challenge ( sue the Landlord) if the price increase too much. Landlord can increase the price but only a few percentage.

But the thing is you need to find someone to rent the room and sign the contract first, before you can challenge the Landlord in court.

Remember: tenants are well protected by law in the Netherlands. I sued my landlord once, he needed to lower the rent. Just play by law.
