Remember these are the people the goverment want to give more tax breaks to and remove the RPZ the encourge more of them into the market
This just seems like a blatant attempt to increase rent and get around the rent cap.
They did their due diligence and business planning so the rents they currently charge are enough to turn a profit, this is just greed.
A few generations ago they used to lift off the roof.
Don’t worry folks, more tax breaks for these types of funds will solve everything
There was an election not so long ago, people could have voted for something different.
Cue the defenders rushing to fawn over private landlords and explain it’s actually renters that are the problem because capital is more important than public good.
I didn’t see in the article, but is this on top of a management fee? They mention car park charges but I didn’t see management fees.
James Connolly turning in his grave. We have betrayed the founders of our country. There is a landlord class and they are faceless companies. All helped by the government via build to rent.
Why couldn’t these apartments have been subsidised and gone on the market to private buyers like in Denmark and Germany?
Ah lads , do you not feel sorry for her , she only has an income of 42 million per annum
People’s greed is starting to cross the line of acceptability. These people are breaking unwritten social norms and behaving immorally, they should be highly taxed, and if not, people should take matters into their own hands and explain to them what is wrong. This has to stop if there is to be an equal distribution of wealth, if we are to be equal before the law and society. These people are antisocial and if they had to sacrifice your life to earn even more, they would do it if they knew they would get away with it, as is happening now.
It’s times like this that I’m glad I bought a home.
There are times this country is a complete joke shop. Service fees and management companies for apartments and other developments should be heavily regulated. It’s one area where people are completely over a barrel and have no choice, effectively dealing with a local mini-monopoly that they’re stuck dealing with.
The stories you see constantly here are huge service fees or maintenance just not being carried out and even things like lock-in to utilities like heat or even broadband in developments that make them highly impractical to live in.
If we’re serious about having apartments tax a living option, we need to have the whole sector regulated properly, much as we regulate utility companies, banks or anything else. They’re service providers. I don’t see why we keep excepting provision of housing from normal regulation of basic standards either. It needs spend from the state on serious enforcement, not just some bare minimum effort.
If Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil actually intend to remain electable at all, they are going to have to make some moves on this. I don’t think they’re quite getting that they are only in power by the skin of their teeth and election after election that gets thinner and thinner. They are not appealing to voters in situations like this, or to many younger voters at all and they’re rapidly becoming less and less relevant to where people’s lives actually are.
I would say at most FF/FG have one election cycle to reposition themselves, but I doubt they will be able to do it as they imagine they’re somehow going to appeal to an electorate with these wishy-washy policies and complete capture by the property development and small time landlord sectors.
Prices go up, more people feel squeezed, more people are renting, older voters are fading out of relevance and the driving force in politics is increasingly people in generation rent. Each 5 years that gets more the case, and FF/FG just aren’t providing solutions.
So the fee isn’t optional. I know these places have some nice things like an on-site gym but for 200 you can get a membership to gyms with better equipment and still have some money left over.
sounds like a scumbag chancer
Remember when countries had labour camps for people like this?
Evidently, most people are happy with this, as they vote for the same or don’t bother to vote.
This country is unfortunately infested with absolute greedy bastards.
Disgusting to see.
I am not in the legal profession but can someone who is please explain how this could possibly be legal if there is already a management fee?
If you are paying through a management fee for common area maintenance and electricity etc through it how can you be denied access with extra fees?
We were told that institutional landlords would be better cos they’re ‘tightly regulated’ and less likely to pull crap like this on tenants. What a load of hogwash
Honestly what is the point of the rent cap if they can just invent additional fees that somehow don’t count as rent? Whatever about the car parking space which (though I think should be included) some tenants may not use, to claim that your rent payment doesn’t cover the communal spaces is so blatantly dishonest and money grabbing – if you’re paying rent it is expressly for the purpose of renting the apartment and all that comes with it, like the luxury of using the communal fecking walkway leading to your front door!
The Ireland the government wants and Irish people are too spineless to do anything about.
Wheres Luigi when you need him
For what died, the sons of Roisin? Was it greed?
