Why Us?
At Gillespie Lowe we believe that our business is about people not just property. We understand and recognise how difficult and demanding letting or selling your property can be.
Our professional and dedicated staff work hard to make the entire process as simple and efficient as possible for all parties concerned.
Over 30 years, while establishing a strong presence in both the sales and valuations market, Gillespie Lowe have nurtured a lettings and management business that has now grown to one of the largest databases in the city. In addition to the divisions of the company that deal with lettings, management of individual landlords and portfolios, Gillespie Lowe also maintains a sales department, a valuer and a renewals department to efficiently manage any re-lettings and
potential vacancies as they arise.
Whilst our reputation and track record ranks us among the top Dublin agents, we recognise that past performance is no guarantee of future success. We also recognise that our clients are our judge and jury, and it is this philosophy that shapes and drives our commitment to you.
What our clients say about us
I have used Gillespie Lowe to manage my apartment in Dublin for 10 years and have always found their staff most helpful and efficient, during the whole of that period. This was emphasised recently when I had an issue with my tenant. The matter was dealt with expeditiously and the apartment has now been re-let to the satisfaction of all parties concerned.
Lowe’s have been exceptional in managing my apartment for the last 8 years. Nothing has ever been too much for them. Like dealing with any company, there have been ups and downs, but generally speaking I’ve found them to be very consistent in their dealings with me and my tenants. I can highly recommend them!
The service from Gillespie Lowe has been amazing since day one. They are extremely professional and reactive to their client’s requirements. Brenda especially has always been fast to respond with a positive and helpful approach to all queries. Thanks to all in Lowe for the great service over the last few years.
Great service. Always willing to answer any questions as accurately as possible. Willing to go the extra mile to help when needed. Highly recommended

The RTB was established in September 2004 to operate a national tenancy registration system and to resolve disputes between landlords and tenants. As part of its remit, the RTB also provides policy advice to the Government on the private rented sector. The RTB dispute resolution service replaces the courts in relation to the majority of landlord and tenant disputes.

Revenue and Tax
Rental income is computed on the basis of the gross amount of rents receivable. A surplus (profit) or a deficiency (loss) is calculated separately for
each rental source (see Part 4.8.2 and Part 4.8.14 of the Income Tax, Capital Gains Tax and Corporation Tax Manual). The rental income chargeable to tax is the aggregate of the surpluses as reduced by the aggregate of the deficiencies.Rental losses occur when the deficiencies exceed the surpluses.
Rental income from property situated in the Republic of Ireland (the State) is chargeable to tax under the provisions of Case V Schedule D Taxes
Consolidation Act (TCA) 1997.
Rental income from property situated outside the State is chargeable to tax under the provisions of Case III Schedule D TCA 1997.
In general, the same rules apply for computing income for Case V (Irish rents) and Case III (foreign rents) purposes. However, please note that deficiencies from one source cannot be offset against surpluses from the other. Nor can Irish rental losses be set against foreign rental income or vice versa.
This guide addresses many of the issues that arise in relation to the taxation of rental income. Hopefully it will assist you in understanding those issues and in computing your income or losses for inclusion in your annual return of income. The legislation concerning rental income is found mainly in Part 4, Chapter 8 TCA 1997. This legislation and related guidance notes are available in the Tax Practitioners section of the Revenue website, www.revenue.ie.
