Tax cuts for individual landlords 'needs to be looked at' in Budget 2025, says Housing Minister

In an interview with the Irish Examiner, Minister Darragh O'Brien said the country needed more rental properties and that he would be open to any measures to provide further supply.

Landlords should get further tax cuts in the upcoming budget, Housing Minister Darragh O’Brien has said.

Mr O’Brien said efforts were made last year to reduce the “undue” tax burden for individual landlords and that he would be pushing for further reductions in Budget 2025, which will be announced on October 1. The tax relief, introduced in the last budget, allows landlords to claim back up to €600 in the first year.
