What happens when an RPZ designation expires?

A RentWise Team Answered by

An RPZ designation ending does not automatically end a tenancy or permit an immediate rent increase. For an existing tenancy, rent-review limits may continue to apply under the legislation in force, while a new tenancy may be subject to different rent-setting rules. A landlord must still follow the required rent-review procedure and give the correct notice. Because the position can depend on the date and type of tenancy, check the latest guidance on the RTB or gov.ie; any dispute is ultimately decided through the RTB process or by a solicitor.
