Hi, this is my first posting on this site. Have been reading with interest for a while now and would be grateful if anyone could help me out!
I am considering renting out two rooms in my three bed house in Tallaght (digs for students). I am within a 10 minute walk of IT Tallaght. I never thought that I would have to do this and admit I’m pretty clueless.
Couple of Questions
What would be the weekly rent for digs? Sunday evening to Friday, for both a double room and also a single room.
I've been told the norm is that you charge for every week - even over Xmas holidays when students would have gone home? Is this true?
Would I have to register with the PRTB?
Would I need letting agreements, and is it possible to draft these myself or would I need to employ the services of a solicitor?
How does rent allowance work? Would I need to concern myself with this?
Thanks in advance to anyone who can answer even part of the above - I am only really getting my head around doing this now - hence all the questions.
Thanks
