Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Implementing Housing for All: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Tom Gilligan:

We have bought a number of properties and we are in the process of buying properties where there is a tenantin situand a there is a risk of homelessness. As I mentioned already the issue we have in Mayo is due to a number of what I would call small, accidental landlords, who are not seeing the financial return associated with having a property. We are also trying to encourage those landlords to remain in the market to catch up with primary housing and social housing builds as well.
