Public helper · not a filing

Rent-cap helper

For most private tenancies the statute uses the lower of 2% and CPI per year. Type the rent you charge today and, if you have looked it up, the CSO CPI figure. This page does the sum. It is not legal advice, not a guarantee, and not an RTB submission.

Work out a figure

Arithmetic only. Confirm the current rule and the official calculator on rtb.ie before you serve anything. SmartRent does not file notices.

Sum using 2%

€1,836.00/ month

Increase in this sum: €36.00. 2% ceiling. If CSO CPI is lower than 2%, use that figure instead — we do not look it up for you.

  • Exemptions and special cases exist. This helper does not apply them.
  • Serve notices with the RTB’s own form, on rtb.ie, in your name. We do not send them.
  • Logged-in landlords can store a draft increase under Rent increases, still as a draft.
