What we offer
Lettings & Property Management
When renting, Mason Estates, offer several letting packages which again can be tailored to suit your own individual requirements. Before renting, we can:
- Provide advice on pre-letting requirements and legislation
- Provide house clearance and waste removal
- Arrange repairs and maintenance prior to a property going for rent
- Property fit out if necessary
- BER Certificates and professional photography
Regarding our letting services, we offer:
A ‘Let only service’
This is where we market the property on www.masonestates.ie, www.daft.ie & www.myhome.ie and all of their associated websites. Where possible, and if requested, we will erect a ‘To Let’ board – there are no set up charges and marketing costs for this. Some of the websites charge for ‘premium advertisements’ – if these are requested, there will be the relevant charge invoiced. All our viewings are supervised and when a proposed tenant is interested in a property, we will ask for references. These will include, employer, previous property owners (if available) and any other information that may be possible to get. If the references are acceptable, we will negotiate and finalise all the terms of the tenancy. We will, subsequently, draw up the lease agreement and include any special conditions that may be required. On signing of the lease agreement & move in, we will arrange the transfer of the electricity & gas accounts. We will transfer these accounts, but it is advisable and the responsibility of the property owner to check up on these if a final account doesn’t arrive within 7 working days. On signing of lease agreements, we will secure one month’s rent and one month’s rent as a security deposit on the property. We will also set up a rent payment method to suit your requirements, usually a standing order. We will get the tenants to fill out their section of the RTB form and this will be sent to you with the lease agreements (The RTB registration is done automatically for management properties). BER Certificates are required on all rental properties – If you haven’t got one, we can help you organise this.
A ‘Let & Management service’
Here we do all the above and instead of passing over to the property owner to manage, we become the point of contact for all correspondence and any issues going forward.
We will monitor rents; transfer rents & subsequently email a monthly statement. All rents are paid directly to us, and fees and expenditure (if any) are deducted at source. The balancing rent is then transferred over to you within a couple of working days.
We can also arrange payment of service charges, insurance premiums etc. as requested.
We provide a hands-on management service, which not only professionally manages your property, but also delivers a friendly approachable service to occupants, which helps to build a strong relationship, that ensures the smooth running of tenancies.
We arrange regular inspections of all our properties to ensure they are being maintained to the high standards we set.
We manage over 350 properties in the greater Dublin area and have our own in-house maintenance team, along with a team of established reliable contractors that offer reasonable rates. We are more than aware that, in the current climate, it is essential to keep costs down and where possible, we minimise the call out charges, and in some cases, there are no charges at all.
An important feature of our management service is that we only charge fees when you are getting paid rent – if you don’t get paid, we don’t get paid. We do not charge a letting or a re-letting fee, this is all part of the ‘let & management’ service.
Our management service is hands on, and all our occupants’ issues are dealt with as soon as possible, as something small to an owner is not always small to an occupant. Many of our clients are with us for 20 years and more which we believe is a testament to our service.
Also, as we have been providing Property management for over 30 years, some of our clients now were renting from us in the past, which again indicates a fair service from all sides.

What our customers
say about us
We bought a house through Mason Estate Agents and dealt with Ryan O’Shaughnessy throughout. It was a very positive experience. He was easy to deal with from the word go which made the process so much more manageable. What we appreciated most was his transparency. He was upfront about house details, so there were no surprises along the way. Any issues that cropped up, Ryan was quick to respond and help out with. Communication was clear and consistent throughout the entire negotiation and closing. We would recommend Ryan to anyone looking for a professional and reliable agent.
Sarah and Albie
Working with Mason Estates was an excellent experience from start to finish. Ryan was great to work with. He was always responsive, easy to reach, and willing to answer any questions we had along the way. The level of communication made the whole buying process go very smoothly.
It’s clear that the team genuinely cares about providing a great service, even when there was some additional complications which required an office visit they were very accommodating.
Overall, it was a very positive experience. I would recommend Mason Estates, and Ryan in particular, to anyone looking for a professional, reliable, and friendly team to work with.
Sean and Ryan of Mason Estates were very professional, sensitive and helpful in selling our family home. Would highly recommend
I have used Masons twice to sell a home in the last 6 years. The service remains excellent in terms of communication, service and lengths they go to on behalf of clients
We have used Mason Estates regularly over the years for both formal and informal valuations, as well as engaging them for the sale of our house more recently. Both Sean and Ryan are consummate professionals and a pleasure the deal with. Communication is seamless and you are never left wanting in terms of next steps or where you stand in the process. Huge thanks to the team, keep doing what you’re doing.
What a fantastic Estate Agent!! Ryan O’ Shaughnessy was amazing! From his incredible advice to the constant up dates and reassurances. He gave 150% to ensuring we got the best sale price.
I cannot recommended him more highly!! Thank you Ryan!
Just completed the sale of our late parents house. Mason Estates and especially Ryan O’Shaughnessy were with us all the way . From advice on price and how to present the house to organising BER rating and clearance of the property. Ryan kept us updated constantly especially with the bidding and achieved way over the asking price. From accepting the bid to completion Ryan was an enormous help especially with some difficult issues that arose.
He worked tirelessly to get the sale over the line and his support and advice was greatly appreciated. Would highly recommend Mason Estates and especially Ryan O’Shaughnessy.
I reached out to Ryan while he was working for another agency. Having met him while we were tenants way back over a decade ago.
Back then, he found us a fair solution to a problem, even though he didn’t have to.
We never forgot this, and when we decided to sell our house, we knew he was the guy to do it.
When Ryan switched over to Mason Estates recently, we still wanted him as our Estate Agent.
This sale was not an easy one at all, thankfully Ryan was there to help at every step of the process.
From hiring and liaising with builders to update our home to bring to market.
Ryan was also there to help sort it out when there was a problem with the map folio, hiring a necessary surveyor & architect to resolve it.
When solicitors were delaying the sale, Ryan kept the sale on track by communicating well with the buyers and keeping them on board.
Ryan worked tirelessly through the whole process, he was definitely the right man for the job.
We owe Ryan a debt beyond his fee. We are truly grateful to Ryan for all his hard work and skills on what was not an easy sale.
Without Ryan (and the support of Mason Estates) we do not believe this sale would of gone through.
My whole family thanks you for everything you have done for us.
In short, we would not hesitate recommending Ryan and Mason Estates to anybody who is looking to sell their house.
We used Masons for the recent sale of our property. We met Sean who was very easy to deal with and then Ryan was our main contact for the sale. Ryan was great to deal with, we had zero issues. He was great dealing with purchasers and all the back and forth in between. Overall we would recommend Ryan and the team at Masons.
Mason Estates were recommended to me by the Solicitor in charge of my late mother’s estate. During a difficult time, I met with Sean Mason in my role as executrix. I cannot recommend Sean and his team highly enough. Sean walked me through the ins and outs of selling a property. He explained everything clearly and without fuss and did everything I needed, from Probate valuation, to when the best time would be to put the property on the market, to the presentation of the house all while we were dealing with Covid-19.
Sean and his team organised house clearance, garden clean up without any difficulty and Sean was empathetic throughout. His sense of humour helped in times of great stress, his straight forward manner, his energy and exceptional character would be hard to beat.
On a practical side, he sold the house above the asking price, was accurate with his quotations for house clearing, and clearing up the garden – neither of which was in anyway an easy job.
I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Mason Estates to anyone and I will be engaging them again to sell my own property over the next few months and will be asking Sean’s advice on my own property search as I move forward.
I had the pleasure of dealing with Sean from Mason Estates. I needed a valuation for a property for a mortgage in the vicinity and he was very fast and helpful with the process and even quickly fixed something due to an error on my side. I would use their services in the future again if the situation arose.
Ryan and Team at Mason Estates were extremely pleasant to deal with during the purchase of our property. They were always happy to assist and accommodate with our questions and viewings during the process and we will like to thank for this. We would highly recommend Masons for any of your Property needs.
We had the pleasure of renting a property through Mason Estates from 2020-2024. Carmel and Chloe were fantastic to deal with and great communicators. Whether it was the annual boiler service, or any maintenance needed, Mason Estates were always on top of it in an efficient manner. Would highly recommended them.
We bought our first home with Maria in Mason Estates and couldn’t be happier. As first time buyers the home buying process can be stressful but Maria was very responsive, fantastic at keeping us informed and clearly communicating next steps, which made the process much easier. She was a pleasure to deal with and we are so grateful to Maria and the wider Mason Estates team for such a smooth and supportive experience.
I only have the highest of praise for Fiona and her colleagues at Mason Estates, professional and kind consideration for the difficult task of selling a family home was shown throughout the process.
Great service. Fiona provided sound advice on how to best to present the property. And worked really hard to get a good price. And most importantly Mason’s offered great value for the service. I would have no hesitation recommending Masons to a prospective seller.
Had a great experience both purchasing and selling a house with Ryan and team, they were great to work with as both a purchaser and seller. Would highly recommend.
We just bought a house and the agent was Ryan O’Shaughnessy. He was great to deal, responsive to all our questions and moved everything along quickly for a smooth closing process.
We have used Mason’s for a number of Sales & Purchases and always found their advice, personal approach and market expertise excellent. Both Sean & Ryan have been brilliant and always exceeded expectations and I can’t recommend them highly enough.
I had the pleasure of dealing new testimonials testing and checking, let me know how everything is going.
