What if agents and landlords could become more confident that tenants could ultimately secure a mortgage?
As tenants represent the natural buyers Dwellr's thinking is that if landlords and their tenants could become more comfortable on this aspect it could offer a win win situation for both parties.
Did you know?
• One in 3 Irish people now rent from landlords but the whole focus in the Irish housing market is on new home purchase.
• Dwellr's feedback has been that tenants are disadvantaged by a perception that their chances of securing finance are weak against new homeowners
• Accordingly, agents and landlords don't actively canvass them to consider buying their properties
• This is surprising in a market where agents report so many landlords exiting the market
Dwellr is testing this with a pilot limited to the first 25 successful landlords with their tenant applicants to establish demand and learn.

Getting approved is free, it comes with no commitment and doesn't impact your credit score.
You receive a home purchase budget and can choose any qualifying home available on the Dwellr market, working with a Dwellr approved local estate agent.


Dwellr arranges the future purchase of your chosen home. Your initial contribution goes into a savings account towards your future deposit.
Move into your home and make it your own! Your monthly payments include built in savings that contribute towards your future mortgage deposit.


You can exercise your purchase option within a 36 month timeframe. If your plans change, you can walk away in line with the agreement terms and take your accumulated savings with you, minus any applicable costs.

The Lease to Own scheme reflects the times we live in, where creating time and space to become mortgage ready can be essential. Dwellr allows buyers to secure their future home while progressing confidently towards ownership.

Through Dwellr, tenants can:

• Explore a structured path to purchasing the property in the future
• Avoid sudden eviction or forced sales
• Gain visibility on potential future purchase pricing
• Plan financially with more certainty and time
Dwellr is designed to turn renting into a long-term opportunity, not just a temporary stop.
Dwellr is ideal for:
• Tenants who like their current home and want to stay long term
• Renters interested in buying but not ready right now
• Households working toward mortgage readiness
• Families seeking stability and predictable housing
• First-time buyers who want time to plan and save
You don’t need to commit to buying to benefit — Dwellr works even if you simply want long-term security.
No.
Dwellr does not force tenants to buy.Depending on the structure agreed with the landlord:
• You may have the option to purchase in the future
• You may receive advance clarity on a potential price
• Or you may simply benefit from stable management and tenure
The choice to buy always remains with you.
If a tenant purchase pathway is agreed:
• The landlord and Dwellr may set a future purchase window (typically after Year 3)
• An uplifted price or pricing framework may be agreed in advance
• You continue renting as normal while planning financially
• When the time comes, you can decide whether to proceed
There is no obligation, no pressure, and no penalty for choosing not to buy.
We focus on simplicity and transparency:
• Rent continues under your existing tenancy agreement
• Any changes follow standard legal processes
• Dwellr focuses on consistency, compliance, and transparency
• There are no hidden rent increases tied to the purchase option
Your tenant rights remain fully protected.
Dwellr provides professional, compliant property management, which includes:
• Rent collection and administration
• Maintenance coordination
• Safety and compliance oversight
• Clear communication and support
This means fewer surprises and a more predictable renting experience.
That’s completely fine. If you choose not to proceed:
• You continue renting under normal terms (subject to landlord decisions)
• The landlord may explore other options at that point
• You are not financially penalised for opting out
Dwellr is about keeping options open, not locking you in.
If your landlord is working with Dwellr:
• You’ll be informed clearly and directly
• Any changes to management or future options will be explained upfront
• You’ll receive transparent information about what (if anything) applies to you
Nothing happens without communication.
In most cases:
• No upfront application is required
• Your existing tenancy continues as normal
• If a purchase pathway becomes relevant, Dwellr can guide you through next steps when the time is right
Support is provided when — and only when — you want it.
Time and clarity.
