A number of ads on property letting sites are warning potential tenants they aren't permitted to work from home.
Several room vacancies posts in Dublin say that remote workers will not be considered for a room, with one post on saying the practice "won't suit the atmosphere" of the property.
CEO of Online-applications-dot-com, Karl Deeter, believes live-in landlords may have valid reasons for not welcoming remote workers:
"You could have a situation where someone is a therapist and they're dealing with people who have very profound problems, and they operate their practice from home, that's just an example.
Someone else might be working in sales and it would be inappropriate to have someone talking loudly on zoom calls in the next room.
Another one said you can't work from home because there's no desk space - you might stay it's OK, I'll work from the kitchen table - but they're already working from the kitchen table."
