The soup is heating up again even on the countryside. Foreign investors coming in buying up property in bulk while the normal middle class irish citizen struggles to buy a home. Did our government put some legislation in place to avoid another bubble, to stop foreign speculators or reduce corruption?

NO

They prefer to lick the European asses hoping for a cushy job in Brussels in the near future.

But also they will be voted back in again with the excuse 'better to vote for the devil you know' or the family tradition of flock voting.

the mind boggles, feeling desperate....

Nice succinct rant and sadly they will get away with it again and we will bend over and take it politely

No, what we're complaining about is the deck being stacked in such a way that it is becoming impossible for normal working people to own the roof over their head. This carry on happens all over Europe by the way.

The newest estate agent trick is to throw ie a 3bed semi-de on the market for fuck all let's say 85'000. Then you ring to get a viewing, and you're told there's a lot of interest and a bid in for a 100000. Yeah no wonder because they put it on the market under its value but also never have the intention to sell it for that price, only to draw interest, and fool people into bidding.

True prices are rising and on the east coast especially. The oldest trick in the book is for a priced to be put up and then there is no house available at that price. Thing is to offer what it is advertised at most agents will take it especially if u are in funds and can close a sale fast. I'm currently finishing house on a few different sites and not seeing many investors for the last 6 months or so.

It happens all over the world

Why didn't people buy when the prices were low??

Why do people want to buy when they're expensive???

Tell her to ask for an offer sheet, if they don't give her an appointment, threaten them with reporting to the PSRA, or drop me a pm, I can advise you what to tell her.

I'd it's a bank sale, it's easy to get the receivers details, she can then contact them directly to report the agents for not fulfilling their terms of contract.

It must be hell to try and get started on the property ladder after the recession has wiped people's savings, maybe they were out of work for a while, and if you are lucky enough to buy your home the increasing value of it will mean higher property tax !

They are saying they are having issues getting access to the property and keep going between tenant and landlord. I don't know.. It's like they don't want to actually to sell. It's perfect for her as its beside me. It's either that or up to portarlington. She's a cash buyer. You'd think they would be delighted..

Believe it or not, the market is full of cash buyers!!!

Some tenants can be difficult, but an experienced agent, who knows tenancy law, can access the apartment, without permission.

I've had to do it numerous times, there is legislation and rules in place to cover this.

Tell the agent, to brush up on their knowledge..

Old tricks die hard, property is bordering on underpriced at the moment so there will be a spike in the price but the government need to try to contain spiralling prices like before. To be honest I bought a house in 2006 so I'm in negative equity and would like to see prices go up then level off
