Tier 1 AHB Software for Approved Housing Bodies in Ireland

Tier 1 Approved Housing Bodies, those managing under 50 units of social housing, have specific Regulator obligations under the Housing (Regulation of Approved Housing Bodies) Act 2019. Rentalize Core covers the tenancy, rent, repairs and compliance work underneath those obligations from EUR 199 a month. Prebuilt AHBRA returns are on the roadmap, not in the product today.

Why Rentalize for Tier 1 AHB

Rentalize is built in Ireland and serves property management companies, letting agents, landlords, local authorities and approved housing bodies across Ireland and the UK. Irish tenancy law is native to the platform, not adapted from a UK product: RTB registration and renewals, Part 4 tenancy rights, the 2026 rent cap, BER and S.I. 137 minimum standards. Prebuilt AHBRA and NOAC returns and cost rental scheme workflows are not in the product today, and we say so before you buy.

In production today: more than 6,000 applications processed with zero downtime, including a single week that peaked at 4,600.
