THE National Asset Management Agency has four legal ways to overturn property transfers — including transfers by developers to spouses, children and other third parties — that it believes were aimed at defrauding current or future creditors. …

If a developer is bankrupt, transfers in the two years leading up to the bankruptcy can be set aside. Transfers in the previous five years can also be set aside in a bankruptcy unless a developer can prove that he was solvent at the time he transferred or gifted the asset.

If property was transferred before 2009, NAMA can use the 1634 Conveyancing Act Ireland which allows property conveyances and other transactions to be declared void if they are made for the purpose of delaying, hindering or defrauding creditors. If property was transferred after December 1, 2009, the 2009 Land and Conveyancing Reform Act allows for transfers to be set aside if there was an intention to defraud a creditor.

Finally, the NAMA Act itself contains a miscellaneous provision that gives the toxic loans agency powers to void transfers effected by debtors and those who provided loan guarantees, including personal guarantees.

Welcome

Me in a hat

Hi there! Thanks for dropping by. I’m Eoin O’Dell, and this is my blog: Cearta.ie – the Irish for rights.


“Cearta” really is the Irish word for rights, so the title provides a good sense of the scope of this blog.

In general, I write here about private law, free speech, and cyber law; and, in particular, I write about Irish law and education policy.
