The Furnished Apartment Lease is essential for any residential property letting in Ireland where the landlord provides furniture and appliances as part of the rental agreement. This document is specifically designed to comply with Irish residential tenancy laws, including the Residential Tenancies Act 2004 and Housing (Standards for Rented Houses) Regulations 2019. It is used when letting furnished residential apartments, whether for private residential, corporate, or student tenancies. The lease includes comprehensive provisions for protecting both landlord and tenant interests, detailed inventory specifications, maintenance responsibilities, and clear terms regarding the use and care of furnished items. This document is particularly important in urban areas like Dublin, Cork, and Galway, where furnished rentals are common, and must be registered with the Residential Tenancies Board (RTB).
