Cost Rental is a new housing tenure that was created under the Affordable Housing Act It offers a long-term, secure rental option that will contribute to the development of a sustainable housing market in Ireland which provides choice across all tenures. The rent on these units is based on the cost of building, managing, and maintaining the homes.
Property Size: If you are interested you should apply for the size property that matches your needs. We will seek not to under- or over-occupy properties. In other words, a 1-bed home will not be allocated to a family of two adults and one child, and a 2-bed home would not be allocated to a single adult. Set out below, are the guidelines we will be following:.
Three-bed unit — suitable for three adults, cohabiting couple and one adult, cohabiting couple with 1 or more children or lone parent with 2 or more children. Four-bed unit — suitable for four adults, a cohabiting couple and two adults, a cohabiting couple with 2 or more children, lone parent with 3 or more children.
Applicants may apply for one or more unit types that matches their household size. Only one application per household, per unit type is permitted. Please Note: We will not consider an application that will lead to over occupation of a property.
Over occupation is where more than two children are occupying one bedroom per household or where two children one of whom is aged 10 or more, of opposite sex are sharing a room. Only one application per unit type, per household is permitted. Anyone or any household applying multiple times for a single unit type, will be disqualified from the process.
