The 1 that sold for 325k had an attic conversion and a large extension, probably worth 50k in total. I think that's a huge increase in one year in that particular estate.

If this happens why would a big company want to settle in Ireland? Lets be real here, they're here for the tax and the money funnelling and noting else

I see lots of debate that Dublin benefited...fact is it did not due to lack of infra and housing ! We could have done much better if we had both at par with rest of Europe !

There is far bigger differences between the two houses you're comparing than one having an 'appealing front'. Did you even look at the pictures? One is turnkey. It's well maintained, has a kitted out kitchen, proper quality flooring and a large outbuilding. The other is, putting it politely, a 'fixer upper'. It's run down, the fittings scream cheap and and it looks like it hasn't seen a lick of paint in the last 10 years. There's visible water damage in the bathroom, and I don't know what caused the staining in the bedroom but I've seen cleaner carpets in skips. And that's just what you can see from the pics. Realistically how much do you think fully renovating the place would cost? New flooring, new kitchens, new carpets, new bathroom, and the decking and building out the back? Not to mention potentially structural works from water damage.

We also have a highly educated work force and we already have a track record of big MNCs successfully opening up here which means the path has been laid for anyone else who wants to do the same.

Which EU countries do not have highly educated work forces? I'm not sure what "a track record of big MNCs opening here" is supposed to mean. Surely all multi national companies have, by definition, experience of successfully opening in different countries? The thing that Ireland has going for it is low tax. All the rest is PR guff. We do not have a uniquely talented or educated workforce in the EU context and there are scores of executive level professionals who are fluent in English across the continent.

Good telecoms links. Datacentres to choose from.

In relation to the Stillorgan purchase, it looks like their buying the 25 remaining apartments that Ires Reit don't own in that development. Looks like both Greystar and Ires Reit are gearing themselves up to take some or more of that long-term lease agreement money the councils have been splashing around lately.

Its genius from the REITs really - put up the apartments for 2200 a month and get no takers, then approach the council and offer to give a "discount" to 85% of the "market" rent that wasn't being achieved in the first place and secure a 20 year state guaranteed cashflow with upward only reviews.

Due to new data and this week’s news, I start to think that I was at some extend wrong with my prediction on crisis impact on Residential Property price, but to other direction, than most have thought. My prediction was 3-5% decrease, but I start to think that there may not be further decrease. It might be to early to tell, but looking at the PPR data I see first signs that CSO Property price Index may turn positive for 2020 Q4. In a week or two, it will be clearer, when there will be more data, thus less chance with errors/anomalies. Here is from my report on PPR data (Its mostly Median price with some adjustment calculation).
