Hi
not sure where to post this
i recently bought A property with a view to renting it out (part of retirement planning, mad I know with political backdrop). Position of house was very unclear as to whether it was rented or not. So I got onto the rtb who advised over the phone that they had no record of a tenancy being registered. I then asked for confirmation in writing (and provided proof of ownership with the request). Response I get asks for details of tenant and my ppsn and a bunch of other info). Point is I am not going to rent the house until I can charge something close to market rent but rtb don’t seem to get this (by email whoever is communicating with me. Based on general feedback I’ve zero confidence in getting a satisfactory response from the rtb.
Any thoughts how to resolve?
ideally I want to rent the house out asap for close to market rent But can’t take the risk of renting out at a very low rate if there is one.
house has definitely been vacant for at least 16 months before I bought so plan was to hold off entering for Another 8 months if there was a tenancy registered previously.
any advice appreciated ?
thanks Paul
