My NIB tracker T&C’s state the property must remain my PPR for the life of the loan, if not they reserve the right to convert it to their investment home loan rate.
If you are currently paying 1.79%, Nib’s investment rate is 4.15%, a hell of a jump (2.36%).
Tenancy must be registered with PRTB, to claim the interest relief, there are other allowable expenses, letting fees, insurance, PRTB, wear + tear, maintenance, mortgage protection and others.
There are also expenses that are not allowed, NPPR is one.
You would also loose any TRS you might currently be getting.
I see that the NPPR tax is expected to rise from the current €200 level also.
If I can use the house insurance (€700), mortgage protection (€600), BER certification (€250) and possibly letting fees as discountable expenses, this should be good news for the overall difference between rental income and mortgage repayments I'll have to make up.
