LDA Cost Rental Management Software
The Land Development Agency delivers cost rental at scale through state-owned and partner-developed sites. LDA cost rental tenancies have specific eligibility, rent-setting, and reporting rules. Rentalize handles applications and allocations on Rentalize Select and ongoing tenancy administration on Rentalize Core. Automated eligibility verification, cost-based rent setting, CREL drawdown reporting and Housing Agency reporting are on the roadmap, not in the product today.

Why Rentalize for LDA Cost Rental
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.
