Rent Review – Can I give More Than 90 Days Notice?

29th September 2022

Question:

We have tenants in our rental in Dublin since June 2021, we are serving a rent review notice now with the revised rent starting from February 1st 2023.  Can we give 4 months notice instead of 90 days?

Response:

In order for a rent review to be valid, landlords must give tenants at least 90 days’ notice. This means that the new rent cannot then apply until 90 days after the notice has been issued.  Therefore, you are permitted to give over the 90 days notice should you wish.

  • Please ensure you use the prescribed Rent Review Form.
  • Also please serve the notice of rent review on the tenant on the same day as you use the Rent Pressure Zone calculator to avoid any potential issues, as calculations can vary from day-to-day in line with any change in HICP values.

The calculator can be found here.

  • You must also notify the RTB of the revised rent so that it can update the registration details of the tenancy.
