Irish Election: Family live in mobile home after mortgage rejected

The Ballyhaise native lives with his partner and two young children.

He said: “We had an initial mortgage acceptance offer from our bank, but then when my partner received her first maternity payment into our account, everything changed and the mortgage was denied.”

Mr McGovern added: “It was a very tough time, because we fell between the cracks. We couldn’t afford to rent and we’re above the threshold to qualify for social housing.

“The idea for the mobile home was a temporary solution until we both could start working again when the kids were old enough for creche and we would be in a position to re-apply for a mortgage, but it hasn’t worked out that way.”

The 31-year-old hotel worker was contacted by Cavan County Council and informed that without planning permission the mobile home was against regulations.
