The rapid increase in Mortgage Evictions has triggered much social unrest and has resulted in a number of suicides, which has forced Politicians to act in ensuring that it is more difficult for property owners to be evicted from their homes.
Last November the PPgovernment passed a decree in to force a moratorium of all property evictions for the most vulnerable members of society. Families earning below €1'650 per month which also have either one child under 3 years old, more than three children, have a disabled dependant living with them, or are unemployed, will be protected from evicition for a period of 2 years.
