I spend most of my summers in Ballyheigue. The family have a mobile home down there. Absolutely lovely spot in the summer but you couldn't pay me to stay there during the winter.

Ah i would be the exact opposite.. LOVE the winters here off season with empty roads and the quietude and peace. Hate the summers! Had visitors last June and took them to Dingle and NEVER AGAIN in season...shudders!

I'll rent you out a mobile home in Ballyheigue from September to April so. Supply your own electricity and water. Decking could do with a lick of varnish. €20 a week. :pac:

Gosh that is nice. You wouldn't get a wood pallet for that in Dublin.

How about buying some land such as this

http://www.lisney.com/commercial-properties/development-land-property-in-land-at-kilakee-rathfarnham-dublin-16/16632

Costs 295k and listing says it allows for rural residential so building a house or two on 36 acres seems feasible. View not bad either

Looks nice but if we are only able to spend 270k (90%) then I'd go for the Kerry one.

What happens when your wife takes the house in the divorce?

(This actually happened to a friend of mine)

Tough luck. That would be your fault if you were stupid enough to marry a bitch.

90% of 300k is not a tenner...

Thanks captain obvious. We've already covered that.

Ah ffs. There's always a spanner in the works. I didn't even consider the 90% rule

I have friends in the USA with a huge house and a mortgage to match ... so I'd pay that off and go and live with them. I've bought the house, they can pay for my upkeep, and I'll spend the rest of my days writing or whatever.

If you can't sell it until you die you you could arrange to fund your lifestyle by selling it afterwards.

It's always nice to see a scheming lawyer taken advantage of by a little old lady.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeanne_Calment

In 1965, at age 90 and with no heirs, Calment signed a deal to sell her apartment to lawyer André-François Raffray, on a contingency contract. Raffray, then aged 47 years, agreed to pay her a monthly sum of 2,500 francs until she died. Raffray ended up paying Calment the equivalent of more than $180,000, which was more than double the apartment's value. After Raffray's death from cancer at the age of 77, in 1995, his widow continued the payments until Calment's death.

Simples! On the small island where i lived, a man built a modern five bedroomed bungalow for himself and his other half. When they split he went in with a bulldozer and destroyed it, levelled it to the ground so she would not get it, All the local authority said afterwards was that they did not think he had permission to do that!

Ah lads come on. Do we need to turn this thread into legal thread?

maudgonner · 17-02-2016 12:55PM

I'd raid the piggy bank and search under the couch cushions for a bit of change to put with it and buy this humble abode.

Then lord it over you peasants. Plus, I'd have zip lining and zorbing in my front garden, cool!
