• We operate a differential rent scheme, which means the more a household earns the more rent is charged. Conversely, the less a household earns the less is charged.
  • The person in receipt of the highest income is the principal earner. All other persons in the household with an income are subsidiary earners. 
  • Rent is calculated as follows: principal earner’s income less €35 multiplied by 16%. Subsidiary earners income is calculated the same way, but is capped at €18 per earner. A €1 rent deduction is applied to all children and students under 23 in the household. An additional service charge may also apply, such as boiler maintenance or a heating charge.
