What happens if I breach my tenancy agreement or the property rules?

If you breach your tenancy agreement or a reasonable property rule, we will assess what happened & explain what needs to change.

For many issues, such as an incorrectly stored item or a first noise complaint, a reminder or discussion may be the appropriate starting point. More serious or repeated breaches may require formal action.

What to expect

• We review the circumstances & any relevant evidence.
• We explain the concern & give you an opportunity to respond where appropriate.
• We may ask for the issue to be put right by a reasonable deadline.
• We confirm any next steps, including repair costs where lawfully recoverable.
• Serious or continuing breaches may result in statutory notices or legal action.

We cannot simply change the locks or evict you for breaking a house rule. In England, the Renters’ Rights Act requires valid possession grounds & legal procedure. In Dublin, Irish tenancy law & RTB notice requirements apply.

We consider disability-related adjustments & other legal protections when responding to a concern. Tell us promptly if you think a report is wrong or you need support complying with a requirement.
