The idea is that you're supposed to save money, or you can afford a bigger home, by doing so. 415k for a standard bungalow in Maynooth? No a-thanks.it isn't a healthy market when even someone on 100k can't get a mortgage for a normal bungalow like that.

You can buy similar houses in that area for under 500k that wouldnt need much work. [...] Added bonus is once a year one of Irelands best small music festivals is held in a field on the lake shore just down the road. Its called Knockan Stockan [...]

In documents opened in the High Court, the gang is described as being involved in bogus home improvement work throughout Ireland, the UK, and across Europe.

We aren't in a hurry to buy, but I sincerely hope that when we do, the market has normalised. Asking-prices are absolutely surreal right now, I dont care what music festivals are nearby. Nobody in their right mind would pay 500k for a family bungalow in Maynooth.

Nobody in their right mind would pay 500k for a family bungalow in Maynooth. It's reminiscent of 2006. A crash is gonna come. I sincerely hope we are out the gate whenever it does arrive.
