Document background
The Rent Increase Letter To Tenant is a crucial document in Irish residential tenancy management, required whenever a landlord wishes to increase the rent for their property. It must be issued with at least 90 days' notice before the increase takes effect and can only be implemented once every 12 months (or 24 months for existing tenancies). The letter must comply with Irish legislation, including specific requirements for properties in Rent Pressure Zones (RPZs) where rent increases are capped. The document serves as official notice and must include specific calculations, justifications, and declarations to demonstrate compliance with relevant regulations. It forms part of the formal record of the tenancy and may be required in any future disputes or RTB proceedings.
