Kildare is a core Dublin commuter county, with Naas, Newbridge, Maynooth and Celbridge accounting for most rental supply. A national rent cap applies since March 2026, limiting increases to the lower of 2% or inflation. Proximity to rail and the N7 pushes rents higher in commuter towns; look further west for better value.
Rent may be reviewed once every 12 months. Use the rent increase checker to see whether a proposed increase is within the legal limit.
