Hi there

I am looking for advise on the help to buy scheme, I am starting a self building property in the coming weeks but I want to claim 2026 tax in my HTB application as it is a substantial amount

Should I start my project now using my savings which should get me my foundations and blockwork complete and claim my first mortgage drawdown in January so that it will include 2026 tax returns or should I delay the entire project until January

If I claim it now the money I will get out of the scheme is minimal (2k) but if I include my 2026 tax it will provide around 10k which is obviously substantial

Any help is greatly appreciated

Hi Guys, Just wondering if anyone has any recommendations on what products to use to clean blue Bangor natural slates, they have been stripped off the roof now and are in storage but I’d like to clean the grime off them before they go back up

Thanks

Hi All

I am currently looking to get a structural report carried out on a derelict property, does anyone have any recommendations in Galway / west of Ireland, having a tough time finding one at the minute
