Social housing

Social housing corporations (sociale woningcorporaties) rent unfurnished units at affordable prices throughout Delft. While these homes can be attractive to international visitors because of the low prices, there is always a waiting list, the application procedure can be very complicated and priority is given to those who have been waiting the longest.

The first two websites below explain the system but it would be helpful to find someone who speaks Dutch to help you with the registration and application process through Woonnet Haaglanden.

• Housing corporations in Delft (you can ring them for more information)
• Woonnet Haaglanden: a complete listing of public housing units available for rent in the region (including Delft and The Hague); here you can register and then apply for available units (in Dutch).
