If there's not, I would predict many will start following Glenveagh's lead and start dropping their advertised prices very significantly just to get their money back at least, never mind a profit. Even if there is, it will be a stop-gap measure. If they did increase the help-to-buy to €85k as the developers are lobbying for, that measure would be removed within two years (due to budget constraints) and the prices would drop anyway. Will potential buyers realise this and hold out? Some obviously will want/ need to still buy but I would reckon professional investors would be very wary of such incentives. Would be good for first time buyers if investors did show less interest though.

Are these essentially "discounted" to compensate for the fact you're going to have to go to the rounds of evicting somebody if you want to live there? What are the reasons a tenant is left in place when a place is sold?

Thank God for the PPR Check out this property I found using Daft: https://www.daft.ie/9106028

The bulking up of Indian employees in Dublin points to plans to justify this practice by providing that there is a significant operational presence in Ireland justifying shifting revenues from India through the jurisdiction. Why is that relevant to Irish property? Continued Big Tech success in Ireland in terms of employee numbers, offsetting some economic fallout from covid, meaning some new source of demand for rentals.

China banned them in 2009, that seems ott but they should be taxed like there's no tomorrow as they're destroying global local industry. Anyway bit off topic except to say if it happens, the property market would likely experience a significant shock!
