Foreign nationals rented Dublin city centre rooms for their businesses not knowing the owner of the building was trying to get Godart to leave
Marc Godart had a lease on the third and fourth floors of number 6 Westmoreland Street, Dublin 2. Photograph: Colm Keenarented rooms in Dublin city centre to foreign nationals running small businesses using CCTV cameras to monitor a rental system that included per-customer commission.
The owner of the building, Irish property company Richmond Gate Ltd, had been writing to Mr Godart’s company, Green Label Properties, since late last year advising that the four-year, nine-month lease Green Label had on the third and fourth floors of the building expired in December and asking Mr Godart, who did not have permission to sublet the rooms, to leave.
The beauticians and barber who spoke to The Irish Times on Thursday said they had entered into arrangements with Green Label Property Management Ltd this year, not knowing that the owners of the building were trying to get Mr Godart to leave. A contract with one beautician says she “will pay a commission based on the number of clients served during the term of this agreement”, which is for the first trial month of her tenancy.
