    The problem now is that everywhere is an RPZ. Someone might take pity on Eileen. Say they charge her €500/month when the rent average in the area is €1000. Now because of RPZ if Eileen moved out in 2 years they can only charge about €530 for it. If they stop renting for a while and it goes back in the market, they can still only charge €530.

    Those genealogy websites spin some fine yarns to get punters to depart with their cash.

    I don't know that her issue is. Irish grandparents and mother born in the Rotunda. Is the waiting list since Brexit too long?

    This sounds very strange.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,057 ✭✭✭avfc1874


    Totally agree, then she had some lad on who told her she should have bought when she was younger 😮‍💨

    Does anyone believe Katie when she says to Eileen, we'll keep in touch to see how you're getting on 😆

    If she has the mothers name and date of birth and her granmothers name can she not just go in and ask for a birth cert for her mother.

    Could she just let it go as everyone is bored now and maybe write a poem about it



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,418 ✭✭✭Kalimah

    Back in the 60's/70's a good worded letter from the local priest or Garda would get you through all that red tape when applying for a new passport.

    The problem with HAP is once you're in receipt of HAP the council class you has housed so they take you off the housing list in most cases, then the landlord decides to sell and you've another family homeless, and then HAP have to increase their payment to get that family rehoused under no doubt a higher rent, if they just kept those people on the list and house them like anyone else on the list they could be saving ten of thousands of euros… So the homeless figures are completely off!!

    Just half listening did that older woman of 70 say that of her total income 40 - 50% goes on rent? or just her employment?

    That would mean she is bring in 43K per year on a part-time job, and her Daughter would have some income also, but again I don't know if she is including this.

    Nor does it take into account her state pension which can range between €87 to €289 per week

    Her daughter would be getting €244 per week, at the lower end of this they are bringing in 17k plus lets say a part-time min wage job would give her around 14K, that's a the lowest level bring in 31K.

    As for someone leaving college and I say this as someone who left it late to start house looking, start saving. If you able to save 10k every year you'll have 100k to your name by the time your in your 30s. House prices will have gone up but you should be able for a mortgage, at that point even with rent.

    Think outside of Dublin.

    I have some sympathy for people and certainly a 70 YO woman with a disabled daughter. But… I wonder.

    Anyway Katie a well paid RTÉ staffer who's married to the TV Scheduling Manager probably has less sympathy.

    She could also go the church she made her 1st Holy Communion in, assuming she made it.

    This is why Katie wanted Eileen to rush through her story so she can get to this fascinating story 😮‍💨

    I'm guessing these people were rang by the researcher

    Wonder does KT have a nice ruler on the desk to visualise the inch-age within the shorts 🤣



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,756 ✭✭✭littlevillage

    My idea of a dream wedding, even better if you only tell people you got married when you arrive home 😁



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,756 ✭✭✭littlevillage
