Tenants in Louth generally have the same rights as tenants elsewhere in Ireland, including a safe, properly maintained home, reasonable privacy, information about the tenancy and protection against unlawful eviction. Deposit deductions and rent increases must follow the applicable rules, while a landlord must give the correct notice and meet the required notice period to end a tenancy. Some arrangements, such as renting a room in the landlord’s home, may have different protections. The RTB can provide guidance and handle disputes, but the outcome depends on the facts of the individual tenancy.
