Course Details

Property companies in Ireland fall into two distinct categories — PSRA-regulated property service providers and Owner Management Companies (OMCs) established under the Multi-Unit Developments Act 2011 — and each carries its own set of regulatory, accounting, and audit obligations. For accountants advising or auditing these entities, understanding where company law, sector-specific regulation, and financial reporting requirements intersect is essential. This session gives you a structured, practical grounding in both entity types.


Lindsay Webber will cover the following topics during this webinar:

  • The PSRA regulatory framework — licence categories, client monies and annual returns
  • OMCs under the MUD Act 2011 — establishment, obligations and company law considerations
  • Accounting for OMCs — service charge income, sinking funds and MUD Act reporting
  • Accounting for PSRA licensees — client monies treatment, revenue recognition and regulatory capital
  • Audit and assurance — statutory requirements, client account audit reports and key audit risks


By attending this session you will have a clear understanding of the regulatory, accounting, and audit requirements that apply to both OMCs and PSRA-regulated property companies, and be better equipped to advise or audit these entities in Ireland.


This session will be of particular interest to accountants and auditors with property company clients in Ireland.
