RTB Outcomes by County

RTB Disputes in Galway โ€” Outcomes and Trends (2022โ€“2026)

Galway data coming in our next release

We're building county-level RTB outcome data for Galway โ€” a city with a distinct rental profile driven by NUI Galway and a significant student tenancy population. This page will show deposit success rates, notice validity outcomes, arrears ejectment rates, RPZ breach patterns (including Galway city RPZ boundaries), and overholding awards.

While you wait, you can explore the national-level data or check your rights for your Galway tenancy using righttostay.
