The First Home Scheme, launched on 7th July this year, supports first-time buyers in purchasing new houses and apartments in the private market through the use of an equity share model. Full information on the First Home Scheme is available at the following link: www.firsthomescheme.ie. The First Home Scheme Designated Activity Company (DAC) holds responsibility for operating and maintaining the First Home Scheme, including the processing of applications.
The application process is designed in such a manner that the whole process can be undertaken online via the website. However, applicants with additional issues or requirements in relation to the scheme itself, or the application process specifically, can utilise the other options available on the ‘Get in Touch’ page of the website, available at: . These other options enable applicants to e-mail the First Home Scheme directly, or to speak with a scheme representative by telephone.
