Hi All,
I am asking this on behalf my mother. She is a Widower in her late 60's and has serious mobility issues. She is a homeowner with no mortgage. No bank loans or savings. She needs to be on the ground floor to have easy access to toilet and negate the challenge of trying to get up a stairs. In the last couple of years I have had OT reports done for her to start the process of getting a grant (of Fingal County Council). The grant if we where successful only goes so far and there is a shortfall of about about 35k to build a one bedroom extension with wet room facilities.
Are there any institutions that would give my mother credit for a share in the house (apologies I don't have the right terminology).
I am just trying to see can she leverage her only asset to secure funding so that she can make life easy for herself now. I am not in a position to borrow the money for her. Any help or advice is greatly appreciated.
Many Thanks
