whats your point ?
The so called center right party that is in power are suppose to be running the country ,
And given the scope/reach of our welfare system, I'd question how many of the tenants in stories such as this are actually working and if the rent is indeed being paid, it's in large part coming from DCC or other such Local Authorities.
If is a problem in Ireland and they don't have the same problem in other countries in is down to the parties who have being in power since its foundation all center right?whats your point ?
And the flip side of that, is that while the private rental market is a business, it should not be compared to all other private markets........
Landlords should expect, or at least be very prepared to expect, that over the course of mortgage term, non-payment of rent, or rent disputes, or tenant disputes, etc are part and parcel of the sector. Anyone who is not prepared should stay out of the rental market.

Even if that were the case, the rent is being paid.
Yes, but not all being paid by the Tenant as you had portrayed it.Even if that were the case, the rent is being paid.
I think most landlords are prepared for that, they'd be very naive otherwise.Landlords should expect, or at least be very prepared to expect, that over the course of mortgage term, non-payment of rent, or rent disputes, or tenant disputes, etc are part and parcel of the sector.

The media will be all over them if they speak out pointing out they did nothing they were asleep at the wheel and still are,
I think most landlords are prepared for that, they'd be very naive otherwise.
But where they follow the law/rules and are still left out of pocket for months on end because of a system that is totally against them, where even the politicians advocate the breaking of the law....well that's a whole different ball game.
Now you sound like a centre right Irish politician speaking on RTE who wants to get paid and avoid doing there job ,The people who can and do not pay there rent love that kind of guy he is the reason why,There are similar and dis similar problems for similar and dis-similar reasons.
The private rental is a business. If you want to make it something else then its not private or a business.
How do do ensure a Owner can sustain repeated loss'es. if there is no profit then no one is interested.
So usually the suggestion is remove small LL and replace with big LL.
But in fact its small LL most likely to want take the smallest profit. Big companies the fast buck, big profits.
You have you wish, small LL, leaving big business entering. Rental Caps. You also have more homelessness, prices rising and less rental properties, and still no real action from the govt to provide housing.
Still sawing the branch you are on. The solution is protect tenancy, put also give LL protection. At the moment LL has no protection.
In fact we've moved to a higher branch, have more people standing on it and made the problem much worse.
And the flip side of that, is that while the private rental market is a business, it should not be compared to all other private markets.
It is a market that deals with people’s basic security – shelter, this is essential to the functioning of a civilised modern society . The private rental market cannot be compared to other markets like iphones, or cars, or tickets to a rock concert. It should be subject to a different set of rules.
Another point is, why is it automatically assumed that this private business is being forced to run at a loss? Is not possible that the landlord seeking to evict is already profiting but simply trying to maximise profits?
Final point, the concept that I can become a landlord by virtue of a mortgage application is wholly inadequate. Tomorrow if I want, the bank will lend me €250,000 to buy a house and become a landlord. No business plan involved, no questions over contingency plans for non-payment of rent. If I asked for a €250,000 loan to finance a new business, the money would be a lot harder got.
The unsustainable nature of our private rental sector is exposed by virtue that it is overly dependent on landlords who took a mortgage with the intention that it will paid off in 25 – 30yrs, by the very people who the banks determine cannot afford a mortgage in the first place.

When you see the tax landlords have to pay and how the cannot off set any of it like there tenant can ,The real boyd barrett in centre right clothing you are not watching ,There are non so blind as those who will not see,what has that got to do with what boyd barrett said ?
whataboutery !
I'm not exactly sure what your gripe is here. If the tenant is paying the rent, then why would the small LL be complaining about OH?
The thread is about not paying rent. You want to derail it about something else.
Now you sound like a centre right Irish politician speaking on RTE who wants to get paid and avoid doing there job ,The people who can and do not pay there rent love that kind of guy he is the reason why,
I was responding to delfio's previous comment which referenced TD's advising to stay in the property for as long as possible. I think the assumption was made that these were non-paying tenants, whereas, the report I heard this morning implied rent paying tenants whose tenancy agreements had expired.
If you have issue with the topic being 'derailed', respond accordingly to delfio please.
