Deposits and Notice period for leaving rental apartment

robbieboy

hi all,

i am new to board.ie. it is very good, informative and full of helpful members forum website.

i am currently renting a apt in dublin. i sign lease for 6 months 2 year ago but i didnt received signed copy from landlord. still i continue renting until today. now i am looking to move out. but landlord is asking for 56 days notice. as per tenant law/rights, i need to give written 56 days notice. but i dont have valid lease.

do i still need to give 56 days notice to landlord? if i give less then 56 days, lets day 28 days notice, how much of deposit i will lose?

regards
robbieboy

Unfortunately he is correct, under the new PRTB legislation, the amount of notice you should give increases the longer you stay.

Can you advise on this as to how it increases?
Thanks.
