    Me and a couple of friends are planning on moving into a house for rent together. I'm just wondering forms, details, paperwork etc are needed from you to rent a house? Thanks! :)

    Typically you need
    • Proof of PPS
    • Photo ID
    • Work reference
    • Previous landlord reference
    • A deposit - Usually a months rent

    I have also been asked for a letter from bank to say that my account can process standing orders.

    Main thing is money, and proof that you will pay on time on rent due date, everything else is just small in comparison.

    How do you mean passed on ?

    If you are going through an agency then they will pass the information on to the landlord. They will decide if you can move in.

    If you deal directly with the landlord then they would keep copies of everything too.

    Cant think of any other details off hand but have a look on the prtb website , there is loads of helpful info there. www.prtb.ie

    Your PPS number and name will be passed on to the PRTB when your landlord registers the new tenancy.
