Rathfarnham is a family-oriented southside suburb with parks, schools and a village centre. Stock is largely 20th-century semi-detached. Rents are lower than Dublin 6 but transport depends on bus corridors. A national rent cap applies since March 2026, limiting increases to the lower of 2% or inflation.
Rent may be reviewed once every 12 months. Use the rent increase checker to see whether a proposed increase is within the legal limit.
