High level of rental properties not registered with board, figures show

The CSO found that informal letting arrangements were most likely to be seen in predominantly rural areas.

Up to 30% of private tenancies may not be registered with the Residential Tenancies Board, new data from the Central Statistics Office (CSO)shows.

According to Sinn Féin’s housing spokesperson Eoin Ó Broin, the figure demonstrates that there is “clearly a very significant level of non-compliance of landlords not registering with the Residential Tenancies Board”.
