Hi guys... just looking for an Eddie Hobs explanation of TRS on mortgage.
I am buying my partner out (relationship went sour ) ... I will be getting a mortgage for 363k and will have FTB status (have to apply for exemption).. so if I say my repayments were around €1830 per month how much will that replayment be with TRS deducted, do I read it right that I've a ceiling of 800 per annum?
You (a single borrower) are entitled to a maxium of €8,000 per annum at the standard rate of tax, i.e. 20%. That works out at €1,600 or €133 per month.
I am presuiming that your interest payments will be more than €8,000 per annum, you can verify this yourself by running the numbers through the mortgage calculator at www.jeacle.ie
P.S. I am not Eddie Hobbs, but thought I would answer anyway.
