Preparing commune data, market signals, and local context.
Start with the one figure you know. We reverse the official formula without guessing the landlord's purchase price or your home's market value.
Honest verdict
The ceiling depends on the landlord's actual invested capital, revalued and reduced for age. A market valuation is not a legal substitute.
Minimum capital this rent requires
€432,000
At €1,800 per month, the landlord would need to document at least €432,000 of revalued, depreciated invested capital for the base rent to remain at or below the current ceiling.
Ask the landlord or agent for the invested-capital calculation. If you disagree after trying to resolve it in writing, the official procedure explains how to contact the competent communal rent commission.

No. It shows the minimum revalued, depreciated invested capital required by the rent you entered. A final answer needs the landlord's documented purchase, fees and improvement figures.
Luxembourg's official guidance says the ceiling is based on capital actually invested, not movements in market prices. A market estimate could therefore mislead in either direction.
For an unfurnished residential home, annual base rent may not exceed 5% of revalued, depreciated invested capital. Charges and any permitted furniture supplement are treated separately.
After an attempted written agreement and the applicable waiting periods, either party can ask the competent communal rent commission to determine the invested capital and legal rent.
