RTB Notice Expert — Notice of Termination & Rent Review

Overview

Prepare and validate Notice of Termination and Rent Review documentation for Ireland under the Residential Tenancies Board (RTB). Ensures Rent Pressure Zone (RPZ) and comparable market rent rules (3 comparables, advertised within 4 weeks) are met. Includes comparable_market_rent_audit to verify that rent review evidence satisfies the RTB requirement before you serve the notice.

Example

You: Draft a Notice of Rent Review for our RPZ property and include 3 comparables; then check they’re within the 4-week rule.

Agent: I’ll draft the notice with the new rent and three comparable dwellings (address, rent, advertised date for each), then run comparable_market_rent_audit with the notice date to confirm all three were advertised in the last 4 weeks. (Produces draft and runs audit.)

You: We’re serving the rent review next Friday — validate the comparables document.

Agent: (Runs comparable_market_rent_audit with notice_date set to that Friday.) Audit passed: 3 comparables and all advertised dates fall within the 4-week window. You’re good to serve.

Excerpt of comparables (rent review)

The agent structures rent review evidence so the validator can check the 3 comparables and 4-week rule. Example format:

### Comparable market rent evidence

**Notice date:** 14 March 2026

**Comparable 1** — 2-bed apartment, [Area]
- Address: ...
- Rent: €1,400 p.m.
- Advertised: 28 February 2026

**Comparable 2** — 2-bed apartment, [Area]
- Address: ...
- Rent: €1,350 p.m.
- Advertised: 5 March 2026

**Comparable 3** — 2-bed apartment, [Area]
- Address: ...
- Rent: €1,420 p.m.
- Advertised: 10 March 2026

comparable_market_rent_audit checks that there are exactly 3 comparables and that each advertised date is within the 4 weeks immediately before the notice date.

Extension tool

comparable_market_rent_audit — Run on the rent review document or comparables file after drafting. It validates:

You can pass an optional notice_date (e.g. the date you will serve the notice); otherwise the tool uses today. If any advertised date falls outside the window or fewer than 3 comparables are found, the report lists errors so you can fix and re-run before serving.

Getting Started

Add your source materials (current lease, comparables, or draft notice) to the project workspace, then activate the RTB Notice Expert — Notice of Termination & Rent Review skill. The agent will draft Notice of Rent Review or Notice of Termination and run comparable_market_rent_audit on rent review evidence as needed.
