Anyone know if this applies to us self builds? http://www.irishtimes.com/business/economy/buyers-of-new-homes-to-escape-property-tax-until-2019-1.2457935 And if not, does anyone know from what moment you have to start paying property tax, is it after your ESB gets turned on?

I would have assumed so. The website does not seem to have been updated but Self build information from revenue is

-- Are new properties that are built by the owner (self builds) exempt from LPT?

If the property has been completed between 1 January 2013 and 1 May 2013 it will be exempt from LPT until the end of 2016, provided the owner occupies the property as his or her sole or main residence.
Any residential property built by its owner after 1 May 2013 and before 1 November 2016, will not be liable for LPT until 2017.
