Will be interested to see what this goes for - 4 Ellerslie Villas, Bray - asking guts of 1.3m House next door - 3 Ellerslie Villas - sold quickly for a shade over 1m in 2019. It was asking 900k. Number 3 was a little bigger, in fantastic nick, been revamped, with decent sized kitchen/diner in the back bit. Number 4 looks expensive by comparison. If it gets that asking price, the market is on fire.

The economies of practically every country in the world is down 30-70%, with one notable exception...China. their economy has grown during this pandemic. The country responsible for the origination of this pandemic is doing great, and make no mistake, they are already buying up bargains, the same bargains they created. They'll be ready to pounce wholesale when this thing hits the fan, and people need to wake up to what's happening, why it's happening, and how to prevent the damage now, not later.

Australia has been in a property price bubble for the last 60 years. Warnings of it imminently popping have been surfacing regularly for at least the last 20 years.

Things are looking VERY ropey. All individual interests aside, the government here and elsewhere (opposition or otherwise) have made a complete trollocks for the average persons situation. Things are just out of hand now with no semblance of control or intelligent direction, stuff is just "happening". Just to add, the worst outcome I can see coming down the line is that the economy collapses (as opposed to a controlled, sensible correction), the average person is locked out of housing, and the door is left swinging wide open for foreign money to come in and buy up more of the country...which will sustain ridiculous prices while siphoning off Irish people's money to God knows where. A complete decline in nationhood that's exponential. It's worst case scenario and I wish I had faith that ANY government here would step into prevent it, but if anything they're likely to encourage it.

Most people i know who own property there have multiple mortgages on multiple properties and are heavily leveraged, to say the least.
