Myself and my partner are hoping to buy our first home together.
However, currently she owns an affordable home with Fingal. The plan is to hold onto this home whilst renting out a room in it. We will stay there at times and "officially" it will remain her primary residence.
The new property will officially be my primary residence, although in both our names I will be the only one paying the mortgage.
Does anyone know what the implications will be when it comes to us applying for a mortgage?
What are the Stamp Duty implications?
Does the bank automatically share our information with Revenue?
If there is Stamp Duty implications, how are we made aware of it and at what stage?
We have already started applying for a mortgage and one of the banks have been asking questions about the affordable housing side of things and I was just trying to wonder why?
Many thanks.
