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.

PTSB + other small banks interested in their SME and mortgages.

Something like this should be a quick sell if you consider what 1.6m gets you around but it never ishttps://www.myhome.ie/residential/brochure/silverdale-king-edward-road-bray-county-wicklow-a98-x650/4461457#&gid=1&pid=5 It’s amazing how much better greystones does given its much poorer transport links .
