Church of Ireland Retirement Trust [Charity number: NI103096]
The Trust joins with applicants in assisting them to purchase a suitable retirement property on terms appropriate to their means. It achieves this outcome by taking an equity stake in the property representing a percentage of the purchase price. The Trust maintains its interest in the property for the duration of the time the applicant(s) live in the property as their primary and sole accommodation. During the term of occupancy applicants must comply with the conditions placed on them by means of a Trust Deed which sets out the percentage owned by each party and the standard conditions ( not to alter, maintain insurance etc ). The Trust Deed sets out the options to repay the Trust when the property is no longer being used for the intended purpose, normally upon death or moving into nursing care. At this point the property is then sold and the proceeds divided according to the equity stake held by each party. The Trust is then in a position to recycle funds to assist in future situations.
