Private Rightsizing Scheme

Limerick City and County Council has developed a policy where persons over the age of 55 who own their own home, and who find their dwellings too large for their needs, may request the Council to purchase their home in return for a lifelong tenancy in a managed Older Persons Scheme.

  • Are you aged 55 or over, and own your own home?
  • Do you find that your home is too big for your needs?
  • Have your children left home?
  • Do you want to reduce the running costs of your household?
  • Do you want to move to a managed community for Older Persons?

If you have answered ‘yes’ to any of these questions, we may be able to help.

The private rightsizing scheme is a voluntary scheme, which means that you do not have to move unless you choose to do so. Our aim is not just to help people wanting to transfer to a smaller home but to release properties that are in high demand for families that need them most.

Private Rightsizing Schemes will be advertised and included on this webpage when they become available.
