What is the Abhaile Scheme?

Are you having trouble paying your mortgage? Are you worried that you might lose your home because you’re behind on your payments? If so, you might be able to get help from the Abhaile scheme.

The Abhaile scheme is a program that helps people who are having trouble paying their mortgage. It’s run by the government and provides free advice and support to people who are behind on their payments and at risk of losing their home.

To qualify for the Abhaile scheme, you need to meet four conditions:

  • You need to be behind on your mortgage payments.
  • You need to be insolvent, which means you cannot afford to pay your debts as they fall due.
  • You need to be at risk of losing your home because you’re behind on your payments.

If you meet these conditions, you can apply for the Abhaile scheme by contacting us on Freephone 1800 344 556 so we can determine your eligibility. You can also contact your local MABS office (Money Advice and Budgeting Service).

The Abhaile voucher is used used to get help from experts who can give you advice on how to deal with your mortgage problems. We can help you come up with a plan to pay back what you owe and avoid losing your home.

One of the best things about the Abhaile scheme is that once you have received advice and proceed with an application for a protective certficiate, you will receive protection from legal action to allow for a plan to be put in place. This means that if you’re working a Personal Insovlency Practitioner and trying to come up with a plan to pay back what you owe, your lender can’t take legal action against you during this time.

The Abhaile scheme has helped hundreds of people who were struggling with their mortgage payments. As of 2023 68% of people who availed of an Abhaile voucher entered an arrangement to remain in their home.

In summary, the Abhaile scheme is a program that helps people who are having trouble paying their mortgage. It provides free advice and support to people who are behind on their payments and at risk of losing their home. If you’re having trouble paying your mortgage, don’t hesitate to contact us to find out if you’re eligible for the Abhaile scheme.
