Vacant Property Refurbishment Grant Scheme

The Vacant Property Refurbishment Grant is a payment you can get if you are turning a vacant property back into residential use.

A grant of up to €50,000 is available.

If the refurbishment costs exceed the standard grant of up to €50,000, an additional top-up grant amount of up to €20,000 is available if the property is structurally unsound / dangerous or on the derelict sites register.

How to qualify

To qualify for the grant, the applicant(s) must:

• Have proof of ownership or evidence of being in active negotiations to buy a property.
• Live in the property as your principal private residence or make it available for rent.
• Have proof that the property has been vacant for at least 2 years and that it was built before 2007.

The grant is paid when the approved refurbishment works have been completed and all terms and conditions of the scheme have been met.
