Registered queue members now stands at 43 for a launch of only 24 houses unfortunately

Rando · 10-10-2017 10:55pm

After watching the video interview of the queue, it seems that there is a whatsapp group keeping each other informed on when to queue up. Speculating, the whatsapp could be tipped of by SF or maybe the group pressure SF to launch early by generating a crowd.

Well if you take the EAs at their word, they werent pressured into anything. By their own admission they've been ready for weeks to launch, just waiting in the nod from NAMA. They were ready to turn around and launch within 24hrs so easy to see how people who want to buy a home feel they have no choice but to spontaneously queue

What video is this?

Blingy · 11-10-2017 7:45am

SF have been very tight lipped. People that queued three weeks ago set up a whatsapp group to let each other know if the q had started again. Fair play to them. Queuing overnight is not easy I'm sure..juggling family and work etc.

Wantahouse · 11-10-2017 8:09am

how long is the queue now?

Definitely not, I know someone in this queue and they were working off pure guess work. They were actually complaining that they could get absolutely no concrete information from SF at all.

SF gave no information away whatsoever, take it from someone who tried to get some!! I say fair play to those who took a guess on this week, there had been queues last week and the week before that, it is just madness. Hopefully those who have camped for two nights manage to get what they want. Disappointing to see they only released one 4 bed semi detached though.

The people there last night were not guessing, there was an email for both EA's around 4 o'clock saying that they were going to launch today.

sarah1900 · 11-10-2017 10:25am

They were indeed guessing as many of them have been there since Monday! Long before the email went out.

They will, they'll charge whatever people are willing to pay. Hard to believe we're back to this malarkey only 10 years after the last time and with all that's happened in between

Exactly, and when people are queuing for days on end it suggests that there are plenty who are prepared to pay more than the current asking price :mad::mad:

Yup, the boom is back!
What could possibly go wrong?

:rolleyes:

The boom / bust cycle continues....

ClareDoyle80 · 13-11-2017 1:23am

Hi,

Anyone here purchased in this phase and going through precontract queries?

Thanks

Most of the 24 purchasers from October have their 21 day "deadline" this week. I know a few have signed and returned contracts already. I'm sure several, like myself, are still in the process

Fredlouis · 18-11-2017 12:17pm

Does anyone know if there have been any drop outs from the 24 purchasers in October?

Hi Eoin

Mind if I message you? We’ve raised some queries. Hopefully sign next week.

I don’t think there will be. There weren’t any in the first phase.

It’s just Sherry Fitz had said two people pulled out of the first phase and we’re on the cancellation list. Not that I’m hoping some people can’t sign,more that I hope someone wins the lotto and picks a bigger house #goodkarma

Really? SF told us there were no cancellations in phase one. We wanted a bigger 3 bed but only secured the smaller 3 bed and was hoping there would be a cancellation for those houses. Know what you mean, someone might secure a 3 bed when they wanted a 4 bed and then decided not to go ahead and wait for a 4 bed? Never know.

Would be shocked alright, haven gotten to meet the queue. No messers! ðŸ˜‚

Know what you mean though, never stopped playing lotto since!

Yellow Balloon · 12-01-2018 8:10pm

Any clue of when next phase is to be released?

TIA

manuals · 15-01-2018 10:55pm

I thought that it was supposed to be mid year ( around June) but now it looks like it might be April / May....very hard to get any info and very hard to know what to do around when to sell our current house....

Woodenframe · 16-01-2018 9:47am

I'd advise you to get the ball rolling on your own house. We missed out on several new developments last year as we weren't sale agreed and they wouldn't entertain us.. just sell and rent. We did the same, not ideal, but at least we could negotiate hard when we bought 2nd hand as we weren't in a chain and ready to go.

manuals · 16-01-2018 1:47pm

Yeah I think you're right. I just hate the idea of being left without a home, especially when there's so few coming to market in greystones! But I think realistically it's best to sell first

sarah1900 · 17-01-2018 9:12pm

I believe there is a cancellation on one of the three beds today, a friend of mine who was a good bit down the waiting list received the call today but she had bought elsewhere in the meantime, I heard the next launch won't be until May/June. Given the delays with the last phase who knows!

manuals · 18-01-2018 3:29pm

Thanks for that, I didn't know there had been delays with the first phase.

misstrekvix · 30-01-2018 9:03pm

Does any one have prices for 3 & 4 bed houses?

misstrekvix · 30-01-2018 11:20pm

Was phase 2 launched already?

fb2017 · 31-01-2018 12:19pm

Phase 2 was launched back in October 2017. Phase 3 is due to be released mid 2018 according to the daft.ie advert.

misstrekvix · 31-01-2018 11:11pm

Thanks I spoke to SF today and they said they have no idea of dates about when they will be released. itll be mainly 3 beds and a couple of 4 beds but prices are not known yet either!

Just a heads up for you. We tried to get a 3 bed in the first phase but they only informed most people they were going on sale the afternoon before. Some people were informed the morning before so they got a head start (make of that what you will!). People were queuing overnight and still didn't get a house. It was a complete joke. Luckily we got one in Glenheron after that. Be prepared for a mess!

scrabble1498 · 17-02-2018 9:40pm

Anyone idea how much the 4 bed detached went for in the last phase?

Blingy · 17-02-2018 10:40pm

Don't think you will find the answer on the property price register as they won't have closed yet.
The 4 bed detached ranged from €565k-€585k

5 bed detached.

scrabble1498 · 18-02-2018 9:30pm

I suppose they’ll keep going up in price with each phase!

Trying to get an idea of what the 4 bed detached will be in the next phase - judging by the comments probably around 570 plus!

The PPR states the net price on sales for new builds so that works out at €590k when you add on the 13.5% VAT.

Eoinconway · 23-03-2018 11:59am

Regarding the 4-bed detached, there will only be 1 of these in the next phase and I've already heard competition is high for it. I expect the price will be more like the 585, as it's a westerly aspect and large garden.

Not to encourage hysteria, but agents were on site today doing some tidying up, which may or may not lead you to believe there could be a launch in coming weeks.

Andyb2018 · 26-03-2018 9:27am

Rang Sherry Fitz last week but they are giving very little. Some time this Spring is their answer at the moment.

I heard there was a Whatapp group going around for the last phase? If anyone has any detail on this would they mind sending me a pm?

Thanks,
