Taoiseach Micheál Martin has signalled changes to the system, including the possible removal of the zones.
The government is set to explore alternatives to Rent Pressure Zones (RPZs) before they expire at the end of this year.
The entire county is a designated area where rents cannot be increased by more than general inflation
Taoiseach Micheál Martin has signalled changes to the system, including the possible removal of the zones.
The system was introduced in 2016 to cap rent increases in areas with high demand for housing.
John Mark McCaffery, CEO of Threshold, says the Housing Commission has previously discussed potential replacements.
Mary Conway from the Irish Property Owners Association welcomes the move, and says RPZs have scared many landlords out of the market.
