    Believing an article's predictions about the future as if it's certainty - get real.

    Roughly house prices fell by 2%

    So now we shouldn't believe the article ? You posted it with a narrative that's it's a sign of a huge crash ?

    Your not even making sense to be honest.

    Perhaps read and understand the article before linking to it ?

    :confused:

    You're cherry-picking the 'warning-lights' in the article that support your conclusion but ignoring the actual conclusion?

    Gotcha.

    Is it a sign of prosperity ?

    Have you read the actual moody report? They are calling out Southern Europe and UK as the risky areas because of tourism and Brexit. The report is on Europe and not Ireland specifically.

    forgot Brexit doesn't affect us here and that we're different, our economy will withstand a world-wide or European issue or major recession....

    Read the report before predicting a crash they are saying what we all know that tourism retail hospitality are hit hard and this will impact house prices mainly in countries dependent on tourism as it is one of their biggest parts of the economy. Uk is singled out for Brexit and because during 2020 house prices have shot up. The need for more social housing is for people in rent arrears. Add on top of this they are talking about a 3-5% drop...it certainly doesn’t talk about a crash.

    So what point are you at ? Delusion?

    Area I'm looking in has an increase of between 10/15% :eek:

    Covid-19 will worsen housing affordability, report warns

    https://www.irishtimes.com/business/economy/covid-19-will-worsen-housing-affordability-report-warns-1.4416994

    Is it starting to hit home a bit more. This report is painting an extremely bleak picture.

    The property bulls might want to look away
    In Paris, it said the average home buyer needed about 23 times the average annual disposable income to purchase a 70sq m property in 2019, compared with 11 times in Madrid.

    Dublin had the third-highest ratio, behind Paris and Amsterdam, with home buyers needing 17 times the average annual disposable income to purchase a basic living unit.

    Oof, well at least it's not just an Irish problem. How do we make house prices climb down from their dizzying heights in a significant way?

    Same here, places in looking at in D15 are going 10-15% above asking.
    Lack of available property in walk-in condition is driving up prices.

    Are you sure its not just the properties you are looking at both of you. Not saying some might be up 10/15% but not all surely

    Am not talking about what increases they're getting at bidding and beyond. These are advertised at prices way up on last years prices. one link I put up had an asking price of 254k and sold 20/12/19 for 258.5k

    One year later very similar house around the corner is asking 295k!

    It seems to be across the board in the estate I'm interested in and I'm not interested in all that's for sale there.

    Yes

    I'd favour an end Terrace over a Seomra any day.

    My friend got one cost her 5k (shopped around)

    So would I
    But other people will see the seomra as a ready to go home office or teenage den
    Your friend done exceptionally well to get a half decent seomra for 5 K , they normally cost substantially more

    Yes, the home office is a big plus for people these days I guess.

    Loghouse in Bray if you're in the market for one :)

    Only if they are made by seomra :)

    no, if they are made properly, there are a few threads where people have made their own in the DIY section and its still cost them over 5k and they have no labour costs,

    you can get a shed for 5k, not a proper outdoor building.

    Well it can’t legally be called a seomra if it’s not built by Seomra
    I asked was that a seomra in the back garden and the poster replied yes
    He so said he knows someone who got one for 5 k
    As seomra was the only brand mentioned in the conversations it is safe to assume the 5k was for a seomra


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,367 ✭✭✭JimmyVik


    Pop a chill pill guys.

    What I meant is they normally cost substantially more if they are made by Seomra.
    You can get practically the same thing for less than a quarter the price of the seomra models.
    As Mary Hearney used to say. Shop around.
