Today the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage in partnership with the Housing Agency has issued a Stakeholder Notice with additional details regarding a new Croí Cónaithe (Cities) Scheme that will help kick start unactivated planning permissions for build to sell apartments in the 5 cities - Dublin, Limerick, Cork, Waterford and Galway. The scheme will assist in addressing the on-going viability challenges for such developments nationally by providing direct but targeted supports, while benefiting the end consumer in terms of additional apartments for purchase in areas of high demand.
