What is the deposit dispute process in Wexford if my landlord will not return my deposit?

A RentWise Team Answered by

There is no separate Wexford deposit process: deposit disputes are generally handled through the Residential Tenancies Board (RTB). First, ask the landlord in writing for the deposit and an itemised explanation of any proposed deductions, keeping photographs, messages, receipts and the tenancy agreement. If you cannot resolve the issue, you can apply to the RTB for dispute resolution, usually through mediation or adjudication, with a possible appeal to a tenancy tribunal. The outcome depends on the evidence and the individual tenancy facts, so check the RTB’s current guidance or speak to a solicitor if the matter is complex.
