The Rent Overdue Notice is a crucial document in Irish property management, used when tenants have failed to pay their rent by the due date specified in their lease agreement. This formal notice must comply with the Residential Tenancies Act 2004 and subsequent amendments, which set out specific requirements for format, content, and delivery. The document serves as an official warning and typically precedes any legal action for rent recovery or eviction proceedings. It should clearly state the amount in arrears, the period it relates to, and give the tenant a reasonable opportunity to remedy the situation. The notice must be carefully drafted to ensure it meets all legal requirements while maintaining professional communication standards, as it may need to be presented as evidence in future legal proceedings before the Residential Tenancies Board (RTB) in Ireland.
