Entire administrative area of Kildare County Council now designated an RPZ

The Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage, Darragh O’Brien, has welcomed the inclusion of Monasterevin and Kildangan electoral divisions as Rent Pressure Zones.

This comes following the publication of the Residential Tenancies Board’s (RTB) Rent Index Report for Q2 2020 (published today 29 September 2020) which is produced in conjunction with the Economic and Social Research Institute and means that the entire administrative area of Kildare County Council is now designated an RPZ.

Commenting the Minister said:

"In line with the rent zone report received from the RTB I have now signed a Ministerial order to designate the entire administrative area of Kildare County Council an RPZ. Following this designation, an estimated 73.7% of tenancies are now in RPZs.
