Part of the purchase price can be written off against tax. Depending on the scheme, if you're an owner occupier you might be entitled to write off 50 per cent of the purchase price against income tax over 10 years. In others, if you're an investor you can write off up to 92 per cent of the purchase price (depends on the scheme) against rental income from property in Ireland. You should always investigate whether the tax break can be passed on to another purchaser. In many cases it's not.
