    1.Tenant renting apartment 3 months though letting agent,doesnt deal with the landlord directly.
    2.Landlord stops paying his mortgage (possibly).
    3.Courts order seizure order for the property.
    4.What happens next?what happens the tenants and their deposit?

    I think that this is one where the PRTB and/or Threshold are the best to advise, given the legal complications of it.

    If the tenant becomes aware that there are proceedings in being against the Landlord by looking at courts.ie, the tenant can apply to the court to become a notice party to the proceedings. The most likely scenario is that some form of arrangement will be made. The tenant will be given a month free of rent and time to arrange alternative accommodation.

    I wondered re that too; yet a lease here in Ireland can be broken if a property is sold?

    Ask threshold to be totally sure on this..

    I am maybe thinkong of English law here where a sitting tenant cannot be evicted

    But here I think you can be if the house is sold or if the landlord wants it for himself or family?
