Tips for first time buyers

Thu, May 06, 2010

A first-time buyer is someone who has not previously either individually or jointly, purchased or built, on his or her own behalf, a house in Ireland or abroad. Where there is more than one purchaser, each must come within the scope of the definition in order to avail of stamp duty exemptions. In addition, it must be your principal private residence and no rent, other than rent under the stamp duty rent a room arrangements, can be derived from the property for two years after the date of the current purchase.

Get an engineer to survey the property before the contract is signed. Any problems with the structure and/or the boundaries will be highlighted at this early stage.
