Affordable Housing in Carrick on Shannon

Carrick on Shannon Affordable Housing Interest Survey

Leitrim County Council is actively pursuing the development of Affordable Housing over the coming years, under the Government’s ‘Delivering Homes, Building Communities’ Plan and any future Housing Plan.

The Council is now launching an online survey for people who feel they may be eligible to acquire an affordable home from the Council. If you consider that you may qualify as a ‘First Time Buyer’, or ‘Fresh Start Applicant, then you are now invited to complete a short survey on the Council’s website, which should take no more than five minutes to complete.

This is not an application process for affordable housing. This is a provisional survey only, for the purpose of determining potential levels of interest in the provision of affordable housing in Carrick on Shannon. The Council will use the information gathered under this survey to inform targeted development of a future Affordable Housing Scheme, which will be advertised through Leitrim County Council media channels as they are developed.

This information is sought by the Housing Department of Leitrim County Council and retained in pursuance of the functions of the Council as a Housing Authority in relation to housing under the Housing Acts 1966-2015 and in relation to Affordable Housing under Part 5 of the Housing (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 2009 and Section 96 of the Planning and Development Act 2000 as amended by provisions within the Affordable Housing Act 2021.

Please note there are currently no properties available for purchase under the Scheme.

Interest Survey Forms are available here and should be completed on or before Friday,23rd January 2026 @ 4 p.m.
