Hi All,
One of the main reasons that I began my venture in to real estate investing is to accelerate our family's plan to purchase property in Ireland to be closer to friends.
On a recent visit back to Dublin, I started to look more at the rules on airbnb in the Dublin area. Like many tourist destinations, Dublin suffers from extremely high rents pricing many local residents out and to try and negate that there are a number of rules placed on short term rentals in the city. The rule as I had read it was that if the property is intended to be rented out for more than 90 days, there is a requirement that there is a permit required. My first question is, does anyone have experience with obtaining this permit for Dublin that would be able to give feedback on how hard this is? The second question is, as my family is looking to occupy the property for the majority of the year, we are wondering if we need to register or seek a permit if we rent it out less than the 90 days of each year?
Thanks in advance.
Matt
