Modern Modular Living in Ireland

Finance Options in Ireland

Self‑Build Mortgage

Most Irish banks offer self‑build mortgages that cover modular homes once they meet building regulations. Funds are released in stages as the build progresses, with final payment on installation.

  • AIB Self‑Build Mortgage
  • Bank of Ireland Self‑Build
  • Permanent TSB Construction Loan

Credit Union Home Loans

Many Credit Unions now finance modular builds with flexible repayment terms and competitive rates. Approval is often faster and more personalised than traditional banks.

  • Up to €100,000–€300,000 depending on CU
  • Lower documentation requirements
  • Local decision‑making

Green Home Loans

Modular homes typically achieve A‑rated BER scores, making them eligible for discounted green mortgage rates. These loans reward energy‑efficient homes with lower interest rates.

  • AIB Green Mortgage
  • BOI Green Mortgage
  • Avant Money Green Rate

SEAI Grants

While SEAI grants do not directly fund new builds, they can support upgrades such as heat pumps, solar PV, and insulation improvements — reducing long‑term running costs.

  • Heat Pump Grant (€3,500–€6,500)
  • Solar PV Grant (up to €2,100)
  • EV Charger Grant

Local Authority Serviced Sites

Some councils offer discounted serviced sites for self‑builders, including modular homes. This can significantly reduce total project cost.

  • Affordable serviced sites
  • Eligibility based on income
  • Available in select counties

Personal Home Improvement Loans

For smaller modular units (studios, offices, garden rooms), personal loans can be a fast and flexible option. Approval is typically quick with fixed repayments.

  • Credit Union Personal Loans
  • An Post Green Loan
  • Bank personal loans
