I am currently buying an apartment under the Affordable housing scheme, my mortgage is with Dublin City Council.I am in my apartment around 4 to 5 years , problem is the apartment i purchased is too small. At the time i was only entitled to a small apartment as i didnt have kids and was not in rented accomodation .Things have changed since .
A relative of my wife has offered to take over the mortgage as a long term investment with a view of renting it out ,with our names still on the mortgage for legal reasons(ie DCC) also so the clawback wouldnt come into to play. In return he would pay us a sum of money as a deposit for a new house .
Would this be legal or would it be too much of a head ache for both parties involved .
i have heard you are not allowed to rent out these properties but i know of a few people who are currently renting out units .
Thank you in advance or maybe there is an easier way that people are aware of of doing something simlair.
