Cork County Council has launched a Cost Rental scheme which aims to provide affordable rented accommodation to people on middle incomes. Applications for the new 2 and 4 bed houses at Baile Adaim, Carrigtwohill will open at 12 noon on Thursday, the 27th of November 2025.
The scheme is aimed at people who do not own a home, are above the threshold for social housing but have difficulty affording private rented accommodation. Cost Rental provides secure tenancy at a rent which is below the market rent in the local area and is also a long-term secure rental option. This new tenure of rental property is supported by the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage.
The development of eight newly built, A-rated, family homes is located in a much sought-after residential location in Carrigtwohill. There are six 2 bed mid-terraced houses and two 4 bed semi-detached houses, and the rent is at least 26% below private market rents in the area.
Applications for the scheme will be accepted between 12 noon on the 27th of November 2025 and 12 noon on the 11th of December 2025 via the online application portal on Cork County Council’s website.
Houses will be allocated on a lottery basis to applicants who have submitted all the required documents and who are deemed eligible for the scheme. Renters will enter a tenancy arrangement with Cork County Council.
Further information on this scheme and other upcoming schemes, including the eligibility criteria, guide to making an application and documentation required is also available on our website at the link below.
