About this protest

Housing in the European Union has slipped into the absurd. Rents detached from wages, "studios" that are converted cupboards, deposits that would buy a car, contracts written to trap rather than to house. Most of it is legal. Almost none of it is reasonable.

Rent Delusion is a protest. We collect the most delusional rental listings people find in the wild, score them with a single transparent formula, and rank the worst offenders across every EU country. No outrage bait, no made-up numbers - just the listings themselves, measured against what housing in that area actually costs.

How you can help

1. Create an account and verify your email.
2. Submit a delusional listing you've seen - with the facts and a screenshot.
3. We moderate every submission before it appears, so the archive stays credible.

Ground rules

• We document companies, agencies and listing platforms - never private individuals. This is about corporate behaviour, not harassing people.
• Use public listing data only. Do not include any personal or contact information (names, faces, emails, phone numbers). Submissions containing personal info are blocked automatically.
• The Delusion Score is calculated from the listing's objective data by a fixed formula. No moderator or submitter decides how delusional something is - the data does.
• Submit real listings only. Fabricated entries get rejected and accounts banned.
• The Delusion Score is informational and is not legal advice.
