FAQ's


Frequently Asked Questions by tenants:

Who is responsible for contacting the utility companies after I move in?
We at OBG will take the relevant meter readings the day you move in and send same to utility companies.

When will the rent leave my account?
Generally rent is paid by a standing order mandate and will leave your account on the rental due date (The due date is always, the date on which you moved in).

What happens if my rent is paid late?
Any problems with late rental payments should be conveyed to OBG Property Management. Arrears letters will be issued if rent remains outstanding beyond 5 days after it was due. Interest will be charged until payment is made.

If I have any problems during my tenancy who do I speak to?
If your property is managed by OBG please call 0868373121, 0863866887 or 0863853600 or email your enquiry to rentals@obg.ie

If your property is not managed by OBG (i.e. is it a Let Only) please call our Landlord directly, his/her details would have been given to you on the date you moved in

If I want to serve notice to vacate my property what should I do?
Written notice must be supplied to our office 28 days prior to date of vacating the property, for a tenancy longer than 6 months, 35 days is applicable.

What penalties will I incur should I break my lease agreement early?
Your deposit is forfeited.

How will my payments cease at the end of my tenancy?
You should contact your bank directly to cancel your standing order once the last payment has left your account.

What should I do with the keys at the end of the tenancy?
Unless specific instructions are given by your landlord keys should be taken to our office. Please ensure all sets are returned, a receipt is obtained and that this happens on or before the last day of your tenancy.

Please note that you will be liable for rent on a daily basis until the keys are returned.

What expenditure should I expect at the end of the tenancy?
As an outgoing tenant typically your costs will be associated with professional cleaning and the inventory check out. Any discrepancies between the check in and check out may result in deductions from your deposit.

When is my deposit returned to me?
Once the check-out has been conducted, the property has been cleaned to a satisfactory standard and OBG has received instructions regarding the deposit from the Landlord, the money will be returned to you, less any agreed deductions.

This can take between 5 working days and generally no more than 28 days.
