    I hope I am in the right section, but yesterday on coming Home I seen a person put a "for sale sign" in the next door house, which was repossed by the bank, its been empty over three years now so here is where I get mad, the Revenue have put a value on my home in the 100.000 to 150.000 bracket.The tax due will be € 112. I spoke to the lads fitting the sign and the price of the next door house will go for €90.000, but they will except € 80.000 for a quick sale. I bought my house in 2006 for € 274.000, now where do I stand in my value on my home. I have down loaded every house that was sold in my estate since 2006 and the prices they have sold for, the price just keep's going down and down, so how in the name of God can I value this house and if I under value now, what will I expect in the future as a Tax bill for my under valuation.:confused::mad::mad::mad:

    Accommodation & Property would be a better bet for proper advice. You'll probably just get the piss taken out of your lack of punctuation here.

    definitely the wrong forum. for example, my suggestion is burn your house for the insurance before it's too late.

    That was a long sentence. Oh, and thinly veiled "I have an expensive house" and house piracy. Don't download those.

    If the house next door to you sells for €90K, then value your house at that for the Property Tax. The Revenue assessment is a guidance not a requirement and you can use your own valuation instead.

    The revenue website just gives suggested valuations. It doesn't even take into account house size, relax!

    Hypothetical question: My house is currently in bits so it's not really worth much. If I fix it up next year, thus increasing the house's value, do I have to declare this? Would I get in trouble if I sold the house for more than I declared it to be worth?

    The initial value is fixed for five years, so you won't have to revalue it until then.

    The bank still owns my house 'til the mortgage is paid.
    I'll be sending them the tax bill!

    Good luck with that. Let us know how it works out.

    The banks are selling at fire sale price. I'm sure you would hope to get more for your own. Maybe make an offer to the bank to buy the neighbouring property and sell yours at the real value. :D
