Property Market 2020

Bigmac1euro

Maybe an article for “Property Market 2020”
Anyhow looks like developers are going to start strangling supply in order to keep prices in check.

Worth a read anyway.

Yes but a €100K difference approx.:rolleyes:surely not

Living in Dublin seems like a lot of stress from this thread, glad that I do not.

I'd imagine that not too many people with this credhe bill would be applying for a mortgage, house extension maybe

Is that constitutional, money in savings is money that has gone through the taxation system already, plenty of scope to increase property taxes

Anyone in the greater Dublin area who has a child in a creche?

Looks like a big price difference. Do you know the area? Is 1 located in a much better estate or something?

Sure the dearer one is much better located. The other is a bit of a scumbag area and is no where near schools. Id still go for the cheaper one ,always someone who can afford and better rental potential anyway as its near Pfizer
The dearer one isn't really worth that, probably around 280 pre corona

I've always felt the price of these high spec new BTL are priced at such crazy levels in order for supply to be restrained. It is a way to starve the market of supply by making them entirely unaffordable. Even the mythical executives of the big tech and finance companies wouldn't be put up in them and in Dublin we really do not attract the billionaire class like London, NY etc.

Perhaps one seller has priced theirs for the 2020 market, and the other seller for the 2023 market. For some people 3 years is no time at all.

Looked at the PPR data.
10 Castlegrange Lawn, is well priced at 230K, matches previous neighboring house recent year sales.
19-mill-court-avenue, makes no sense to me. Neighboring houses sells around 240K.

I know of the area. My sister has a house in the Castlegrange Estate & was looking to sell in March for €275-300K mark, but this was pre-covid price. Hers is an end house with a garden double the size of the one for sale at €229K. The one at €320K is overly priced, I doubt the location is much better considering both are within a 9min walk of each other.:pac:, unless someone tells me otherwise

I never said it would happen, just that everything should be closely monitored.
All those things guy mention are on the table right now.

Of all things there will never be s tax on savings. You may have negative interest rates but if there was a tax on savings voters would never forget.

The logistics are impossible as well. Is it the bank deducts it like Dirt tax or is it self declaration. If a person has a business is money in the account deemed savings. What about older people or people saving to put kids through college.

First off there would have to be a base exemption like any other tax. People with substantial savings if it was a bank deducted tax would move it to France or Germany. If it was self declaration are you guaranteed to collect it.

I think property tax is set at 0.18%. If savings tax was similar after exemptions and money leaving the country you might collect 30-50million. Not worth the effort and more especially the flack

Was just about to say, we are currently being ripped off in rent and looked around in case we are still renting next year. Still absolute rip offs comprise the rental market, i wonder when this crashes. Don't want to wish bad luck on anyone but it's long over due that rentals drop.

Just took a look at rental properties on Daft in both Cork and Dublin. Sweet Jesus, reality hasn’t hit the rental market at all. Who do they think is going to rent these places for such extortionate rents? Do letting agents not watch the news, or read newspapers?

That is not corect. Some people who had a lot of money before covid 19 may have lost a lot or all of it. Take for example, people in the hospitality industry with high rental costs. They may be personally liable for the rent and have no income to pay it and the business might fail, meanig they will have no way to make back the money they lost.
Some people who had little money before covid may be involved in one of the industries which is busier as a result of covid and can now earn more and also save more.

For the many whose income has remained constant they are almost invariably spending less.

What I think is that people of house buying age are more exposed to the covid downturn that generation x and y.

I was speaking in generalities, of course there will be some individual cases that go the other way, but I wouldnt consider someone to "have money" if a couple of months of covid-19 wipes them out.

There is only an interim government at the moment. Another election within months is a distinct possibility. No politician is going to say anything which might be used against them held a few moths later. No new taxes, no welfare cuts, grants for all business and more spending on health and housing is all you will hear until a government is formed, whether that is before or after the next election.
