Landlord looks a bit creepy...

You can give the shower a lick of paint while you're in it.

Interesting house here, "Capilano" at the top of Ticknock Road. I'd love the views, bar and video game arcade. I'd hate the ugliness of the exterior and the noise from being right beside the M50.

It was asking 2.25 million back in 2015, 6 years of house price inflation and it's only asking half that now

Lots of thoughts and ideas went into the making of that, each one more fugly than the last.

70% of the value of the property must me the large site where you could probably sell a site or two.

What's with the door and the coat of arms? on the window. Were they originally from Switzerland?!

And see the tapered, sloping roof. What was the idea behind that?

Surely, no architect put their paws on any of that house, unless they use etch a sketch as CAD.

I don't know the prices of houses there but I'd say you'd be looking at pouring a lot of money into it to make it right. Re-wiring, windows, doors, roof, kitchen, bathroom, landscaping.
It'd be the guts of €100k+ depending on the finish you want.

"Exclusive preview for our followers" - the bang of celtic tiger is strong off that one.

More likely the removal from the usual platforms is to stop it being shared on social media as "a murder house".

Try and get a few unsuspecting suckers in the door 1st.

Maybe get a bidding war going before you can say "was the shower tray at 66 mountain view park always missing or was it taken by the gards looking for evidence of the kind of violence most civilised people cant even fathom"

There’s a video of it on YouTube, even if it wasn’t a murder house, it’s still a kip.

I would say it depends upon whether the agent was aware of any material facts that may be prejudicial to the purchaser. Likewise, if a vendor fails to disclose or deliberately hides this, the agent may claim they were never aware of this fact.

Looking back at when I was property hunting I am pretty sure such concealment under the guise of ignorance is rampant.

Now gone the other extreme, you can do your degree in architecture but if you don't sign up to some closed shop traders guild and pay a hefty membership fee then you're still not an architect

They seem to give sellers unrealistic values too to try get clients. The same house went up twice on daft last week with these and one other agent. These had it at 550k, the other at 495k. We had them out a couple of years ago when we first considered selling and they were 30k above the two others we spoke to. We made enquiries about other properties they were selling and were put right off. If a house went up with them it put us off even enquiring.

On the topic of the murder houses, we have gone sale agreed on a house recently. I googled the address and found court case where the man there was locked up for possession of a substantial amount of drugs. We went for a walk around the area and spoke to some neighbours. They said it’s known in the area as “the drug dealers house”.

The bottom of that ad is what happens when there is a marriage between an estate agent who makes a living blowing smoke up peoples holes and Instagram which is an entire platform dedicated to hosting people who blow smoke up other peoples holes.

So when trying to sell a murder house thats been ransacked by CSI Gardai for big money the estate agent serves us us up these gems -

Small bit of advice, I would call to the local garda station and ask them to kindly note on their system, that you are the new owners from whatever day you get it. Former residents no longer live there etc....

There is property tax in Florida. About 1000 a year for a medium size gaff

A drug raid on a house requires a warrant and evidence and intelligence to back up that warrant. The warrant would have to have the correct persons name on it to be valid. Your house isn’t going to be raided on the back of previous occupants. The Gardaí know where that guy lives now.

However, there can be issues buying a car that previously belonged to someone of interest to the Gardaí. They don’t need a warrant to pull it over, so if a Garda just sees “Deco McGlinty’s” car driving along the M50, it could well be pulled over, even though Deco sold it on.

Unfortunately, people can and do give previous or fake addresses when stopped/arrested.
Seeing as he has previous at that address, it's always a possibility. How would a.guard know he had moved unless they were told?
Guards do get it wrong sometimes.

You would hope so, but, it has happened in the past.

If you buy a drug dealers house, surely you might have far more interesting characters call to the door than the cops.

There is but it is much less than New York for example. There is also no state income tax in Florida. There are no estate taxes in florida which is also a draw for retirees.

One of my aunts retired to Florida after living her life in New York, it was the heat and weather that brought her and the hubby there.

The Neighbours will find out eventually that this was an ''In Family Transaction'' and you will be sussed. I don't think putting an (early) alibi on Boards will cut the mustard when the **** hits the fan. Thread carefully Man...

A drug raid needs a warrant alright, but that's about it.

Scanty or incorrect information will be enough to get your house raided by the Gardai, no names and no idea of actual occupants are required. You'll be lucky to even get an apology from the Gards, more of a shrug of the shoulders and "just doing our job"...

Apparently a big selling point for this place is that it has plugs.
