Interesting, my friend raves about them. Just not bothered to get to dundrum for it

They will have had to get an exemption if they have none - it'll be on the planning file. It will have cost a significant contribution to the council if they have

Of course but it happens plenty in certain areas anyway that’s enough of the social housing chat

Can we at least try to keep on topic

You think one of the balure houses is social for example ?

Hey lads. Any chance you would shut the fook up about social housing and stop ruining the thread? You could always take it to PM.

Whatever a load of cobblers.

I think €14.00 a week for a full furnished, high spec one bedroom apartment is far from inferior.

Ignore the 14 Euro. And compare the actual property on a large level for line basis

The social housing in honeypark are located in the worse part of the development. Away from playground beside the busy road and noises associated with it.

Popped into Romayos in Cornescourt.

It was fairly busy. Nice layout and the food is great. Its a welcome alternative from Liberos.

I have never been in a Romayos but there seems to be an above average level of food quality than other Italian chippers.

where did being unemployed factor into my post? two teachers would still be paying a lot less than me, anyway not an issue for me personally, but its one reason why honeypark had no appeal for me when we were looking.

Just in general people tend to think as social housing as attracting just the dregs of society.

Also developments have some social housing. If you feel bitter about it you’re going to have an issue finding a place.

People who bought in phase 1 pay less than phase 2. That’s life

The Iron Giant

Any chance you can move the social housing talk to a different thread??

This thread is for business openings and closings.

Some social housing is for elderly

Some like affordable housing and shared ownership are for normal workI got people. I think the limit is up to 45 for a single person and 70k for a couple.

So a teacher or two teachers would be eligible. It’d not just unemployed who get social housing

I thought that all the affordable housing and shared purchase schemes were closed down around 2010?

Not true at all. Side by side identical, if not at even a higher spec. And will be upgraded at no cost to the tenant over the years also.

One bedroom Social-housing fabulous top of the range fully furnished apartment in the old Dun Laoghaire golf courss/Honeypark at a rent of €14.00 per week.

The ones I’ve see have been lower spec and in many places you go , you can easily pick out the social blocks.

Are they 'just renting'?
I've always believed that people in social housing have more security of tenure than someone renting privately, but maybe I was mistaken.
Is a well behaved family in social housing ever moved against their wishes as long as their family size doesn't decline?

There has probably being cases but in general no they wont be moved if they are well behaved.

Of course, thats why I mentioned the fact you are paying for it.

yes but the post reads like its an after thought , no one can take the house from you etc etc

of course they can if you cant pay,

behaving yourself and acting like a normal person so you dont get kicked out is a better deal

The difference is once you buy it its yours and nothing can be done to take it away from you, people on social housing can be evicted at any time for whatever reason so they have to be very well behaved.

You are paying for the privilege of owning a house and knowing full well its yours for good.

People on social housing are just renting and can be moved out at any time.

Some out my way I mentioned before, About 600 - 700 k and the houses are Identical (Social & Private)

I was up there the other day (working) and asked why someone had a portable loo in the garden. Your one that moved in not but a year ago (Brand New Estate) got pregnant again and needs more space for the kids and is getting a two story extension built on the back by the council. To a normal buyer that house in that area when upgraded would probably be close to 800k - 1M
