Sinds de eerste uitspraken van begin augustus 2023 van de Rechtbank Amsterdam is bekend dat huurprijsindexeringsbedingen in huurovereenkomsten met huurders (niet-handelend in beroep of bedrijf) vernietigd kunnen worden als deze onredelijk bezwarend zijn. In de rechtspraak is deze, voor de verhuurder bijzonder nadelige, lijn gecontinueerd. Op 9 februari 2024 is door de Rechtbank Rotterdam (ECLI:NL:RBROT:2024:801) een meer verhuurdersvriendelijke uitspraak gedaan in een zaak over huurprijsverhogingsbedingen. We zetten in deze bijdrage kort de lijn in de rechtspraak vanaf augustus 2023 tot op heden met betrekking tot huurprijsverhogingsbedingen op een rij en bespreken de mogelijke lichtpunten die de uitspraak van de Rechtbank Rotterdam voor verhuurders biedt.
