Rent increase rules in Grange
If you’re renting in Grange, your landlord can only increase your rent by a maximum of 2% per year. This applies to every residential tenancy in Sligo and all of Ireland since the March 2026 reforms.
The increase must be based on your current rent — not the market rate. For example, if you’re paying €1,200/month in Grange, the maximum your landlord can charge after an increase is €1,224/month.
Can my landlord evict me in Grange?
Under the 2026 Tenancy of Minimum Duration (TMD) rules, your tenancy in Grange has a minimum duration of 6 years. Your landlord cannot simply decide to end your tenancy — they need a valid legal reason.
Valid reasons include: selling the property, needing it for a family member, substantial renovation requiring vacant possession, or a serious breach by the tenant. If your landlord tries to evict you without one of these grounds, it may be an illegal eviction.
