Renting,Landlord,Rent-Pressure-Zones

I rent out a property for €1,400 a month. The open-market rent would be about €2,300

I was considering leaving the rent at €1,400 until they move out and asking them to pay €150 month cash for the free electricity they will have. If I leave the rent at €1,400 while they remain, can I set it to market value in the future, when they eventually move, maybe in a few years’ time? In your case, I can see that you are looking to rely on the exception for the property whereby it has undergone a “substantial change in the nature of the accommodation”. Namely, in the case of a dwelling to which the European Union Regulations 2012 apply, the works result in the Ber being improved by at least seven building energy ratings.
