Since 2005 we have been working with tenants from all walks of life across Ireland to help them find an affordable, secure place to call home.
We understand the difficulty many people face in accessing suitable housing but working together we can help find accommodation that suits a wide variety of people.
Working across eight countries including Donegal, Sligo, Galway, Meath, Laois, Kildare, Tipperary and Wexford, Fréamha lease 209 properties, as well as owning three houses in Letterkenny.
We are also looking to grow our housing base and hope to acquire eight newly built social houses in Clonmany, North Donegal in early 2025.
Growth is central to the future of Fréamha and we are always seeking new development opportunities and welcome any inquiries from contractors, developers and property owners.
Fréamha Housing Association is a registered housing charity and an approved housing body in Ireland based in Court Manor House in Letterkenny, Co. Donegal.
