The rental sector is facing “an onslaught of evictions”
with smaller landlords saying they are being driven from the market.

New figures from the Rental Tenancies Board showed on Monday that between April and June, 1,781 renters were given notice to quit, compared to 841 during the same period last year when the temporary eviction ban, introduced under Covid-19, was lifted.
