The cost-of-living crisis continues to ravage the funds of households in Ireland and has resulted in many people putting big purchases on hold - particularly those planning to get on to the property ladder.
If reaching your goal of being a homeowner is a mere stretch of €30,000 or less, the government has a scheme in place for first-time buyers that can get you there - and it has been extended until December 2024.
Getting mortgage approval in Ireland can be a stressful and sometimes tricky process, so the Help to Buy Scheme supports those wishing to purchase a newly-built house or apartment as their first home.
