The actual charge you pay on the property is based on its value on the valuation date (1 May 2013).

Who help them get the job with very good wages !? Do you know how many them stay in Dublin buying houses there !? Plenty ! The only people who has the money during the recession is the people who has acces to tax payers money !

schmittel wrote: » It was a leading question. I was getting at symptoms like rising unemployment which we agree has a negative impact on property prices. I'm not sure what the point of the linked article is. I haven't disputed any of that. My general view is that the impact of Covid will be a recession. The impact of a recession will be a fall in property prices. Nothing in that article changes that view. Indeed this reinforces it:

The Central Statistics Office’s (CSO)Residential Property Price Index for June indicated property prices nationally rose by 0.1 per cent in the 12 months to June, but were down 0.7 per cent in Dublin, where supply pressures are most acute.

There will be huge supply on second hand market And many empty houses for sale which will be heavily taxed by property tax But nobody will have money and jobs except named above.
schmittel wrote: » Indeed. Rising unemployment = falling house prices. It seems again we are in complete agreement. Property prices will fall because bad things will happen to the economy.
schmittel wrote: » Seems like we are in agreement that if we have a recession property prices will fall. Seems pretty likely that we will have a recession.

neutral guy wrote: » All depends at how much people will have 100 Saved ! Because with today rents not much people even have money for food ! Nobody know when recession will happen how hard it will be and for how long.But personaly I think it will be Perfect Storm ! Because this time we are on very bad conditon boat badly damaged during previous recession from which country still did not recover.It will be something very different.

If it falls to 25 dollars. At what point to you think the guy with 10 dollars is going to be able to out bid the other two.
beauf wrote: » If prices fall it's because everything else happens, like fewer people being able to buy. Less being built to buy.
neutral guy wrote: » Somebody think when recession will happen nobody will need the money ? There will be plenty property for sale under different reason.I dont see problems sell property at low price point if somebody sell his properry at low price point which I am interested in.What the difference for how much you sell in this situation ? I losing selling at low price point but I getting for smaller price also! Look guys,the winner will be who has the job and money. The loser will be who will have sell his house to pay business bills. The PA will continue singing them song trying get better teaps. The more people will lose jobs the more people will leave the town. The more empty houses for rent the smaller the prices Same as people leaving pubs business there will be people who will leave renting. We still dont know how heavy taxation will be but I imagine it will be mad heavy ! Everybody will have pay government Covid payments /wage subsidies payments /taxes bills ! And the more people will have the heavier will be the bill ! I think there will be good supply and very bad demand.Because mid class will be hit very badly !
