Purpose-Built for AHBs

Property Management
for Approved
Housing Bodies

Ireland's AHBs manage over 45,000 homes, regulated by AHBRA under the Housing (Regulation of Approved Housing Bodies) Act 2019. Rentalize helps AHBs manage tenancies, track property and tenancy compliance, run rent reviews under the housing body's own rent policy with notices generated, and handle maintenance, all from one platform built around Irish housing law.

Which Rentalize product does your AHB need?

Most approved housing bodies in Ireland are Tier 1 or Tier 2, managing under 300 homes, and cannot justify an enterprise housing management system. Rentalize Core gives a 60-home body the same tenancy, rent, arrears, repairs and compliance engine as a 2,000-home portfolio, from EUR 199 a month, live in weeks. Select is added only when allocations need AI scoring and an audit trail.

From EUR 199 a month

Manage tenancies, rent, repairs and compliance

Rentalize Core. Tenancy lifecycle, rent collection and arrears, repairs with SLAs, safety certificates, rent reviews with notices, tenant portal, reporting and Talia. A 100-home AHB pays EUR 695 a month on Growth.

Run allocations with AI scoring

Rentalize Select. Applicant scoring, eligibility checks, fraud detection and a full audit trail on every decision, for Part V and affordable purchase allocations. Select can also take and allocate cost rental applicants, but automated cost rental eligibility checks are on the roadmap. Works in front of Core or your existing system.

Everything Your AHB Needs

Built for the real workflows of Irish approved housing bodies. Tenancy management, rent and arrears, repairs, safety compliance and rent reviews with notices, all in one place.
