Don’t rely on verbal promises.

The offer of the Bedroom is deemed to be accepted once this Agreement has been signed and both the Deposit and the first Licence Fee have been received by the Licensor. Both of which must have been paid before the Start Date. If both are not paid within Your payment deadline days of the Start Date the Licensor reserves the right to cancel this Agreement and withdraw the offer.

If any sum due under this Agreement is not paid by the due date, the Licensor may charge interest on the overdue amount at a rate of 5% per annum, calculated on a daily basis, from the due date until payment is made. Interest will only be applied to amounts which remain unpaid after reasonable notice has been given to the Licensee. Where any Licence Fee or other sum properly due under this Agreement remains unpaid after the due date, the Licensor may give the Licensee written notice requiring payment of the outstanding amount within a reasonable period specified in the notice. If the outstanding amount is not paid within the period specified in that notice, the continued non-payment shall constitute a material breach capable of termination under the Termination Clause , and the Licensor may exercise the termination rights available under that Clause. Repeated failure to pay Licence Fees when due may also be treated as a material breach where, having regard to the frequency, duration and circumstances of the missed or late payments, the breach is sufficiently serious to justify termination under Termination Clause. Nothing in this Clause prevents the Licensor from recovering any outstanding Licence Fee, interest or other sum properly due under this Agreement following termination.

The Licensee shall have the right to use the following shared facilities and utilities at the Property: Your selected facilities The Licensee acknowledges that the above facilities may be shared with other occupants of the Property. The Licensor may replace, repair, upgrade or temporarily withdraw any facility where reasonably necessary for maintenance, repair, replacement or safety purposes, provided that reasonable efforts are made to restore the facility as soon as practicable.

Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Deposit (less any lawful deductions) shall be returned to the Licensee within 14 days of the Licensee vacating the Property, provided that: There is no damage to the Property, the Bedroom, or any contents provided by the Licensor beyond reasonable wear and tear; and The Bedroom has been vacated and left in a clean and tidy condition. Where additional cleaning is required, the reasonable cost of such cleaning may be deducted from the Deposit; and All keys, fobs, access devices, and any other property belonging to the Licensor have been returned; and The Licensee has complied with the applicable notice requirements under this Agreement; and Any outstanding Licence Fees, agreed charges, or other sums properly due under this Agreement have been paid; and No other deductions are required in respect of damage, loss, missing items, cleaning costs, key replacement costs, or any other breach of this Agreement. Where any deduction is made, the Licensor shall provide the Licensee with a written itemised statement and reasonable supporting evidence. Any deduction shall be limited to the actual and reasonable loss or cost incurred. The Deposit is held as security for the Licensee’s obligations under this Agreement. The Licensee shall not withhold, deduct, set off or treat any part of the Deposit as payment of the final Licence Fee or any other sum due under this Agreement unless the Parties expressly agree otherwise in writing. All Licence Fees and other sums due under this Agreement remain payable when due. Nothing in Clause 15.3 prevents the Licensor from making a lawful deduction from the Deposit after the Agreement ends in respect of any unpaid Licence Fee or other sum properly due under this Agreement, subject to the other provisions of this Clause. Where the Deposit or any other sum which the Licensor is required to return to the Licensee under this Agreement remains unpaid after the applicable repayment period, the Licensee may give the Licensor written notice requiring payment within a reasonable period specified in the notice. If the amount remains unpaid after that period, interest may accrue on the overdue amount at the same annual rate applicable to overdue sums payable by the Licensee under the Late Payment Penalty clause, calculated on a daily basis from the expiry of that period until payment is made.

Both Parties confirm that this inventory is accurate and complete as at the Start Date.

The amount taken cannot exceed the actual financial loss. The Licensor shall take reasonable steps to mitigate any such loss, including taking reasonable steps to obtain a replacement occupant. Any deduction shall be limited to the net actual loss reasonably incurred after mitigation. This clause does not apply where the Licensee validly terminates the Agreement with immediate effect under the Termination clause. If the Licensor requires the Licensee to vacate without providing the notice required under this Agreement, other than where immediate termination is permitted under the Termination Clause, the Licensor shall be liable for the actual and reasonable financial loss directly resulting from that failure. The Licensee must take reasonable steps to minimise such loss. This may include reasonable additional accommodation costs necessarily incurred because of the shortened notice period. Any Licence Fee or other payment relating to a period after the Licensee is required to vacate shall also be refunded on a pro-rata basis. Included when Licence Term is “fixed_term” Where the Licence Term is Fixed term, no notice is required merely for this Agreement to expire on the agreed End Date.

Any notice required or permitted under this Agreement shall be in writing and may be served by: Hand delivery; Email; Text message (SMS); WhatsApp message; or Registered post or any equivalent tracked postal service. A notice sent by email, text message, or WhatsApp message shall be deemed received on the date and time it is sent, provided that the sender does not receive any notification that delivery has failed. For the avoidance of doubt, a message sent to the most recent email address or telephone number provided by a Party shall constitute valid notice under this Agreement. A notice delivered by hand shall be deemed received on the date of delivery. A notice sent by registered post shall be deemed received on the date shown as delivered by the postal service. If the postal service records that delivery was refused, unclaimed, or otherwise unsuccessful due to the recipient's failure to accept or collect the item, the notice shall be deemed received on the date of that record. The Parties shall promptly notify each other of any change to their contact details.

This Agreement may be terminated in any of the following circumstances: Included when Licence Term is “fixed_term” Where the Licence Term is Fixed term, this Agreement shall end on the End Date unless the Parties agree in writing to extend or replace this Agreement, or it is terminated earlier in accordance with its terms. By either Party for any reason, by giving the other Party the notice required under the Notice Periods clause. Where either Party commits a material breach of this Agreement which is reasonably capable of being remedied, the other Party may give written notice identifying the breach and requiring it to be remedied. If the breach is not remedied within a reasonable period having regard to its nature and seriousness, the notifying Party may terminate this Agreement. Either Party may terminate this Agreement with immediate effect where the other Party commits a serious or material breach which is not reasonably capable of being remedied, or where continuing the arrangement would create a genuine and material risk to the safety of persons or property. Without limiting the above, the Licensor may terminate this Agreement with immediate effect where the Licensee engages in violence, threats, harassment, serious anti-social behaviour, deliberate or serious damage to the Property, illegal conduct at or materially connected with the Property, or other behaviour creating a genuine risk to the safety or security of the Licensor, another occupant, a neighbour, or the Property. Without limiting the above, the Licensee may terminate this Agreement where the Licensor commits a serious or persistent breach of their obligations under this Agreement which materially affects the Licensee's safety, health, access, privacy, comfort or reasonable residential use of the Bedroom or Common Areas. This may include, without limitation: Violence, threats or harassment towards the Licensee. Deliberately and materially preventing the Licensee from exercising the occupation or access rights granted under this Agreement without reasonable justification. Serious or repeated interference with the Licensee's privacy contrary to this Agreement. Failure to address a serious safety issue. A serious or persistent failure to provide heating, hot water, sanitary facilities or another essential facility required under this Agreement. A material infestation of rodents, vermin or other pests which is not addressed within a reasonable time. Common Areas becoming materially unhygienic as a result of a serious or persistent failure by the Licensor to comply with their responsibilities under this Agreement. Serious or repeated excessive noise or unreasonable disturbance caused by the Licensor during the agreed quiet hours. Where the matter is reasonably capable of being remedied, the Licensee must first notify the Licensor of the problem and allow a reasonable period for it to be remedied, having regard to its nature, seriousness and urgency. No such period is required where continuing to occupy the accommodation would create a genuine and material risk to the Licensee's health or safety, or where the Bedroom or essential facilities cannot reasonably be used for normal residential purposes. A temporary interruption or isolated incident shall not by itself give rise to a right of termination where the Licensor is taking reasonable steps to remedy the matter in accordance with this Agreement. Where the Licensee validly terminates this Agreement under this Clause, the notice period otherwise applicable under the Notice Periods clause shall not apply. The Licensee shall not be liable for Licence Fees falling due after the termination takes effect, and the Deposit shall not be withheld or reduced solely because the Licensee did not give the notice that would otherwise have been required. The Deposit shall be returned in accordance with the Return of Deposit clause, subject only to any other lawful deductions properly due under this Agreement. Where a Party terminates this Agreement with immediate effect, that Party should notify the other Party as soon as reasonably practicable of the termination and the reason for it, unless doing so would be unsafe or impracticable. Where it is safe and reasonable to do so, the Parties should first attempt to resolve a dispute through informal discussion or voluntary mediation. This does not require either Party to delay termination where an immediate termination right applies and does not prevent either Party from contacting An Garda Síochána or emergency services, obtaining legal advice, or seeking urgent legal or protective relief. Termination of this Agreement does not affect any rights, obligations, payments, liabilities or remedies which arose before termination, including any obligation to return or account for the Deposit and any Licence Fee or other amount properly due under this Agreement.
