The Tenant (Incremental) Purchase Scheme for Newly Built Houses 2010 is underpinned by the Housing (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 2009 and the Housing (Incremental Purchase) Regulations 2010. I can confirm that the regulations underpinning this scheme remain active. The scheme applies to the purchase of newly built local authority houses only. The scheme is one of a number of purchase options intended to meet the needs of those requiring long-term housing support and supports existing low-income tenants in making a start on the route to home ownership.
Statistical information on the number of houses sold under the Tenant (Incremental) Purchase Scheme for Newly Built Houses from 2015 until the end of 2022 may be found on my Department’s website, and can be located at the following link: www.gov.ie/en/collection/0906a-other-local-authority-housing-scheme-statistics/. Information for sales to date during 2023 is not yet available.
