I do not want to leave this to chance. In 95% of scenarios, that will absolutely be the case and the landlord will look for it in writing. However, where is that obligation set down? It has to be clear. If we are attaching penalties of up to €20,000 for a transaction going through after the fact, there is a potential liability on the owner of the property. There needs to be very clear protection in the legislation.
