    You want lower rents? You need to challenge the people that can influence that using legislation.
    Or I suppose people can keep posting here while nothing happens IRL..

    you really want a free functioning market.

    take spar as an example. imagine people were robbing that, then the government legislates that you cant ban them, just let them keep robbing.

    eventually that spar shop closes.

    Talk about bedgrugary. There are many good landlords out there who dont overcharge and provide a service. Dont you forget over half the rent goes back to the government to pay taxes to support welfare recipients, health ( where there is a huge overspend even pre-covid).etc etc by the way many landlords are selling up and this means less property for renters so rents go up. It's simple supply and demand.

    Hahaha if you think people are declaring all their rental income to revenue you are crazy

    There's less properties to rent and less landlords in the game year after year, surely if there was money in it there'd be more of both?

    Well most landlords nowadays are very professional and declare all income to the Revenue. Why wouldn't they as otherwise it's a very expensive " loan " from the state with interest, penalties it ends up multiples of original tax. They're STUPID if they dont. What's more most tenants pay by credit transfer to the Landlod's bank.

    What evidence have you of tax evasion?
    I suggest you report "shadow economy" activity to the Revenue if you have concrete evidence of same and are as concerned about it as you appear to be.

    Were not in the 1980s anymore....
