What steps should I take before an eviction hearing in Ireland?

A RentWise Team Answered by

Read the RTB correspondence and eviction notice carefully, noting all deadlines, hearing details and the reason given for the termination. Gather relevant evidence, such as your tenancy agreement, rent-payment records, correspondence, notices, photographs and details of any repairs or complaints, and submit it as the RTB directs. Prepare a short timeline of events and attend the hearing, or contact the RTB promptly if you need accessibility support or cannot attend. Consider getting advice from Threshold, a solicitor or another qualified housing adviser; the outcome will depend on the facts and the RTB’s dispute-resolution process.
