    Bought my grandmothers house from the council 8 years ago. Joint mortgage with her but I pay it. She still resides there.

    Must I pay this charge in addition to my own house?

    Further to this are old people (90+) expected to make this payment?

    Just saw that if your house is for sale you are exempt from the charge, must put up a for sale sign tomorrow, but Ill have to ask the price I paid for it in 2006. Should be a long time before I get any interest :)

    If you are owner or joint owner - you are liable.
    See http://www.moneyguideireland.com/household-charge-property-tax-more-details.html

    Also - there is nothing aboutnot having to pay if your house is up for sale !
