In case I need to explain that again:

While we may express opinions that our own, we are doing so on a medium that is not our own. In the original thread a comment that was made made has directly led to at least the threat of legal action, and as far as we know actual legal action. Any more comments like that, and this thread will also be removed by the site administrators.

I have asked the administrators to contribute to this thread on what exactly we can say here, and hopefully then we will have a clearer idea. Until then I have to err on the side of caution. Any problems with that, feel free to bring it up on the "Feedback" forum.

Point taken Eoin_s
I'm not going to disagree with you.
I don't know what he wrote.

Anyone heard anything back from O'Farrells after the Charlesland COURTAGM on the 14th??

So much for their promise that they'd have the minutes etc...posted out to us....and I quote. "if not this week (weekending 19th), then certainly next week" (week ending 26th March)
Does anyone know if there's a possibility of getting onto the residents committee, and what exactly their function would be?

Maybe that sould have been, "if not this year, then certainly before 2010 "

IMHO that's about par for the course

Received nothing in the post as I expected! If you contact O'Farrells they will take your name regarding joining the committee - they took about 7 names on the night but recommended we should have about 10. Again the contact details were supposed to be posted to us?!?!?!

Hello all, what exactly are all of you paying in management fees? I just bought up in the crescent and they are charging me 1692 euro for the year.........seems a little high to me? Any one else in the crescent being charged similar?

Thanks

Ouch - that's probably at the upper end of the scale, though I think you may one of the first people in the Crescent to join on here. Are there lifts in your place? That can cause the management fee to rise an awful lot.

For comparison, a 2 bed apartment in the Grove is around €500 p.a.

WOW some differnce there! Thanks for the reply Eoin, There isn't even a lift in the crescent! Yeah thought it was steep alright! The estate agent told me it was 1500 but the contract says 1692! It seems steep even though the bus is included! But oh well, i'm rapidly learning buying an apartment is expensive in every sense!

The bus is included in all our management fees. I presume the cost is so high in the Crescent because of the electricity and upkeep of the common areas, like corridors and lobbies, etc. Very, very pricey though especially considering there's no lift. How many apartments x €1692?
