LPT Revaluation 2025: What Landlords and Homeowners Need to Know
Homeowners across Ireland, including landlords, must revalue their properties as Revenue rolls out the Local Property Tax (LPT) changes ahead of 2026. More than two million homeowners will receive letters in the coming weeks. It’s important to act quickly to ensure compliance.
With property prices up over 25% since 2021, Revenue wants LPT to reflect current market values. Homeowners must assess their property value as of 1 November 2025 and submit their LPT return by 7 November 2025.
Why Landlords and Property Investors Should Care
The revaluation may affect annual LPT costs and your property finances. Valuation bands have been widened to reduce the impact, but properties under €525,000 could see increases of €5–€23. Some local authorities may apply the maximum 15% Local Adjustment Factor, raising charges further.
Even newly built, refurbished, or previously unregistered properties must now be filed. This includes homes that were previously derelict or exempt. Compliance is required.
Preparing Your Property for Accurate ValuationRevenue provides an interactive valuation tool. For landlords and investors, consider:
- Property type and size
- Condition and recent improvements
- Location and current market trends
Using these factors ensures an accurate valuation. This helps you avoid overpaying and plan for future LPT charges from 2026 to 2030.
Steps to Ensure LPT Compliance
Revenue recommends three simple steps:
- Determine your property’s valuation band as of 1 November 2025.
- Submit your LPT return, including the valuation band, by 7 November 2025.
- Pay or arrange payment for your 2026 LPT charge.
