The Complete Irish Landlord Guide
14 chapters. 45+ pages. 10-tab spreadsheet. Updated for the March 2026 rental law overhaul. Everything a landlord in Ireland needs, in one place.
Irish rental law changed on 1 March 2026
Rent Pressure Zones are gone. In their place: national rent control that applies to every private tenancy in the country. New 6-year Tenancies of Minimum Duration. Different rules for landlords with 1 to 3 properties versus those with 4 or more. New termination grounds. New penalties of up to €30,000.
This guide covers every change. Not a summary. Not a news article. A chapter-by-chapter, line-by-line breakdown of what you need to do differently from March 2026.

What Buyers Are Saying
The compliance checklist was a wake-up call. I had three things wrong that could have landed me with RTB penalties. Updated everything within a week of buying this.
The lease templates are exactly what I needed. My previous lease was missing half the required clauses under the March 2026 changes. Professional quality throughout.
Running two apartments in Dublin and this guide has streamlined everything. The tenant screening template and deposit handling procedures are properly done — legally sound and practical.
