    I heard Brookford was ok as regards Pyrite.

    I believe the houses that were fixed up are like new. Spoke to a few and they are very happy with their "new" homes. I would worry about buying in Ravenswell.

    Once you make sure you get a valid green cert for the house you should be OK. If its a semi d I'd make sure the neighboring house has one as well.

    Lusk Village Estate has it as well, know some people who have to move out soon for it to be fixed.

    That's an older estate built in a time that predates the Pyrite problems as far as I am aware.

    Does anyone have any idea as to how widespread the damage is in Brookford?
