Local property tax to apply to at least 100,000 more homeowners

Finance minister Paschal Donohoe confirmed that a re-evaluation process of all homes for local property tax will take place in November.

At least 100,000 more homeowners face paying the local property tax from next year after the Government decided to end exemptions on homes built since 2013.

In addition, 36% of homeowners will see their tax liability go up, and every home in the country liable for the tax will be revalued.
