Core Features

RPZ checker

A calculator and notice draft for rent pressure zones. You remain responsible for RTB rules. Not legal advice.

What this tool does

Check whether an address looks like an RPZ on the data we store, run a percentage figure, and export a notice draft. SmartRent does not file with the RTB, does not prevent an illegal increase, and is not a solicitor.

What you can do

RPZ flag on addresses we can match
A percentage you can compare to the RTB limit yourself
A 90-day notice template you edit
Links to rtb.ie
You file; we store the draft
Not legal advice and not a guarantee

How the RPZ checker works

1
Enter the property address
We compare it to RPZ data we store. Confirm the current designation on rtb.ie.
2
Enter current and proposed rent
The tool shows the percentage change. You decide whether that is allowed.
3
Read the figure
This is arithmetic, not approval. Exceptions and RTB rules stay on rtb.ie.
4
Export a draft notice
A template you can edit. Have a solicitor review anything you will serve.
5
You serve and file
SmartRent does not send the notice or register anything with the RTB.

How landlords use it

Before a rent review

Run the checker, then confirm the current RPZ rules on rtb.ie. The figure in the app is not permission to increase rent.

Several properties

Open each property record and run the checker. You still decide and you still file.

New tenancy

Market rent for a new letting is a legal question for you and, if needed, a solicitor — not something this website decides.

Questions

How do you know if my property is in an RPZ?

We store a flag from data we hold. Confirm the current designation on rtb.ie. We can be wrong or out of date.

What is the current RPZ rent increase limit?

Look it up on rtb.ie. We do not publish a live legal limit as advice.

Can I increase rent above the RPZ limit?

That is a legal question. We do not approve increases. Ask the RTB or a solicitor.

Does SmartRent stop an illegal increase?

No. The software cannot prevent you from serving a notice. You remain responsible.
