this seems terrible for renters, how is this allowed for situations like this?

There’s many Chinese people living in flats and apartments in Dublin, four to a room, sleeping on bunk beds.

Completely shameless.

Blatant slumlording without any attempt to hide it. And half the country will see no problem with it.
“The property was previously used as office space but received change-of-use planning permission in 2022 for a five-bed residential unit.
The Journal, presenting as a prospective tenant, went to view a bed space in a triple room as part of its reporting on this increasingly common rental situation. A man called Dermot O’Connor facilitated the viewing.
He said there would be a rent of €740 per month, plus €100 in bills, for the bed space. The Journal understands that other people living in the house were paying more than the amount quoted on the day. We were asked not to tell any future roommates the exact monthly payment.
A request for a cash deposit of €500 on the day of the viewing to “hold” the bed space was accompanied by a warning it would be taken quickly as another person was due to view it.”

This man is a pure scumbag plain and simple, charging these outrageous prices for people to live in conditions he himself would be unwilling to endure.
We need stronger punishments for this sort of thing and I’d go so far as to take the property from him as well as other assets including his family home if he has adult children.
People will say “oh but this will drive landlords from the market” but I don’t want landlords who operate like this in the market.

Wait until they allow modular housing in gardens…. More beds and bigger profit for this type of “entrepreneur”.
