Thanks for that. Is there an indication somewhere as to what a 14 old deposit would be worth now. I have searched the Internet and found various reports reporting on the performance of the funds over short periods but not over a longer period such as 14 years. Thanks

Hello, could someone provide an estimate of the interest you would expect on a compensation award held by the court for a minor. The award was made in 2004 and the minor turns 18 April 2018. Thanks

I use excel as well. I downloaded an income and expenditure template 15 years ago and still use it today. You would need to have a basic level of excel experience and be able to update/change basic calculations on cells etc. But it's very easy. There must be thousands of nice free templates on...

Hi, Has anyone ever heard of the department of social protection paying full rent for a tenant? My tenant never pays her small portion of the rent and it is probably time that i get rid of her however I might reconsider if the department pay the full rent. I understand this is not possible but...

Yes I would agree the fines for non payment of NPPR charge is on the high side and it's designed to encourage people to pay and pay on time. Anyone who has more than one property should really be on top of this. If you can't due to whatever reason then you should be enaging the services of...

St. Thomas's and Scoil Aine (beside Superquinn) are fantastic primary schools extremely well run and very popular. The Lucan Community College has an excellant reputation and from what I've seen so far(one of my children has just started) it is very professionly run with very dedicated staff...

As the previous poster said you need to know your full liability and determine what would happen to you, if for instance you had to pay 2 years rent? If I was doing something like this for one of my children in the future then I would consider that I was essentially a silent partner in the...

The banks or at least the policy makers in the Banks new very well the value of the trackers. BofI tried to get me off the tracker within 12months(thinking Halifax had gone away) and I know within 18 months First Active had increased the tracker rate above ECB. Unfortunately too many people...

I don't think this behaviour is that odd or unusual at all. Around 2003/2004 I got my BofI and First Active mortgages converted to trackers(0.75 above ECB) when I "started" the process of switching to Halifax(same rate at the time.) Within a couple of years I had a cold call from First...

This is an Irish based forum.

When I changed tenants, the new lease was put in my wife's name. This was based on my Tax consultants advice.

It doesn't matter who owns the house. What matters is who is receiving the rental income. Get the lease/rental agreement in your wife's name perhaps at next renewal. Your wife can then pay tax of 20% on the rental profit. I do it this way myself.

This is normal practice. The estate agent will normally pass the deposit onto the landlord. The lease should state how much money is being held on deposit. Did your friend take photos of the property before leaving? She should to prove that the property is in good condition. If the landlord...

The fact that you can't pay anymore could be a blessing in disguise for you! You need an independant Bulgarian solicitor to act on your behalf and get a refund or at least a partial refund. The chances are your neighbours in the complex are in a similair position. Is there anyway you can make...

What does it say in your lease? I don't see why the landlord should be responsible for housing a tenant when there is an accident etc. which requires the house to be vacated for repairs? The tenant of course is entitled to get a refund of any rent paid in advance until the property is...

Infinity, Do you mind me asking which bank you have your mortgages with? Thanks

If you came across some information an in-appropriate behaviour within Nama/Ntma is there somewhere you can whistle blow without your identity or source being revealed?

I just found the whole thing surreal. I couldn't believe it at the time.

It doesn't matter when the mortgage was taken out. The reduction of interest relief to 75% applies to all qualifying mortgages/loans. The interest relief is the same for Irish rental income. You can only offset interest against foreign rental income for loans/mortgages used to purchase/improve...
