Equity Release

If you have been paying your mortgage over an extended time the value of your home may now be significantly greater than your outstanding mortgage balance. You are now eligible to release equity providing you continue to meet standard lending criteria.   

Pension Mortgages

A pension mortgage allows you to buy a property through your pension fund. It can be a profitable option for Irish pension holders as all income and gains within pension schemes are exempt from income tax and capital gains tax. There are many rules associated e.g. a lower loan to value allowable on property and a revenue rule regarding the need for the property to be managed at “arm’s length but please call us to discuss further.

Non-resident lending

Purchasing a property in Ireland while in overseas employment can often be a difficult process. Our advisers can work with you throughout the documentation and application process with practical advice and guidance on how to attain the best mortgage for you.

A lower (LTV) Loan to Value will be offered with tighter underwriting being the norm.
