Pfffft! In this climate? Where are you living? Did your mother send you from Phily to live with your Auntie and Uncle?

Anything from 120k to 200k depending on how ignorant the seller is.

I can see prices going around 100k for a 3 bed Semi here.

Hank_Jones · 11-04-2010 03:17AM

That's fresh, prince.

I don't want to say how much houses in my area are worth.
People might try to rob me.

Icould sell 4beds in Sligo for ninety grand and makes profit

Midnight_EG · 11-04-2010 03:25AM

€540,000 easily

minidazzler · 11-04-2010 03:26AM

Are you asking cost, value or what they are actually worth, there is a difference in all three.

The cost of houses where I live, standard 3 bed, is around €200,000.
The net value is probably around €150,000
they are worth around €20,000 in my opinion.

epgc3fyqirnbsx · 11-04-2010 03:33AM

Because I live in the most beautiful part of the country the values vary significantly

FearDark · 11-04-2010 03:39AM

About three fiddy.

Absolutely nothing, in much of the country.
An estate agent or anyone else can put any price they want on a property; it's utterly meaningless.
If there is no potential buyer, it's worthless.

jester77 · 11-04-2010 07:16AM

anything from 50,000 to 7,500,000 depending on what you are looking for

Fratton Fred · 11-04-2010 07:23AM

In Dun Laoghaire they are doing buy one get one free on apartments because there are so many. Hasn't stopped them building more though.

it depends what kind of property u have, house/appartment/land/shoebox, says drumcondra on you profile, 260-290k for a 3-4 bed house id say is about right, but its no time to be sellin imo and if anyones buying there prob lookin for a deal, its a tug o war between seller and buyer, u show me urs ill show u mine all that crap:)

for anyone around in the 1980s thats not far off the truth, 4-5 bedroom houses were going for IR£20-30k back in the mid 80s in the west, just did a quick calcuation and inflation from 1987-2010 is running at approx 100% :eek:

I reckon the average industrial wage in 1987 was about 9-10K

bonerm · 11-04-2010 11:17AM

IMHO a house's value is based on the following.

10% the bricks and mortar
11% the land/footprint
79% the neighbours

Expensive beds...

JONJO THE MISER · 11-04-2010 11:22AM

Where i live in the country at the moment, houses are worth around 350,000 to 600,000 but they dont come on the market that often, most people have lived here all there lives and we dont take kindly to blow inns and people who will lower the tone of the neighorhood:D.
None of your riff raff around here i tells ya.

Giving the apallingly low standards of construction in a lot of cases 20,000 Euro Turkish Lira could actually be quite generous.

What, like steal your entire house?
The value of your house says nothing about it's contents.

The price of something is what someone's willing to pay for it, of course. With houses, you see lots of talk about factors such as location, scarcity, and neighbourhoods as influences on the price, but none of that matters if you can't pay for it.

You could pay for it a few years ago, when banks were giving out 100% mortgages with minimal checks. The sellers charged more because the buyers could pay more. That's not happening any more: now you need a larger deposit to get a mortgage linked to your verified income. Potential buyers will have less money, so sellers will have to charge less, or there will be no sale. (Yes, I know there will be exceptions, but I'm talking statistically here.)
