In Westland, the glasshouse horticulture municipality with districts such as Naaldwijk, Monster and Kwintsheul, getting your deposit back upon rental or purchase is a crucial moment, especially for agricultural properties and greenhouse horticulture dwellings. According to the Civil Code (Book 7), the landlord in Westland must repay the deposit within a reasonable period – generally 30 days – after the end of the lease agreement, provided there are no outstanding payments, damage to greenhouses or outstanding accounts for maintenance. Important conditions specific to Westland include a thorough inspection of the dwelling or business premises, including checks on glasshouse horticulture installations, and the preparation of a written delivery statement by both parties. In disputes over damage, such as broken windows or defective irrigation systems, the landlord must provide hard evidence, otherwise he may not withhold anything. Tenants in Westland can go to the Huurcommissie or the Juridisch Loket in The Hague for free advice and mediation. Practical tip for Westlanders: schedule a joint inspection with a local real estate agent from Poeldijk and photograph everything. Delay in the refund leads to statutory interest from the 30th day. For purchase agreements in Westland, a similar arrangement applies under Civil Code Book 3, with additional attention to suspensive conditions in horticulture transactions via Rabobank Westland.
