Free car when you buy a house!!!
You'd be mad to pay that sort of price in Dublin 15 even if it came with a free car. They (the developers/planners) should be focusing on public transport.

Why not lower the price of the gaff by 25k?
I'd love to know in what country a 2-bed not close to the centre/quality public transport/many shops and amenities sells for 480k? This is lunacy, utter crazy bonkers lunacy. |
Things are gtting out of hand on the property front. The fact that this place as you said Mark doesn't have any property public transport and local amenities, you would think that those factors would affect the price?
Also would love to see how you combat traffic gridlock when you are doing this sort of gimmock? |
The article is a bit misleading. It's €480,000 for a three bed, and it comes with a ton of extras (full tiling, full kitchen, jacuzzi bath)
With the car it might not be such a bad deal. Although €25k off would be nicer. Pity about the location too. |
I agree with the location being poor being bad in that it is that it is nowhere near a rail station and the bus service is not the greatest. You'd need a car!
The news article says "€480,000 for a two-bed property" which I wouldn't even consider paying for a two bedroom house not without amenities such as proper public transport. Hollystown, for anyone who wants to know its location is just behind Tyrrelstown in Dublin 15 near the N2, basically in the middle of nowhere |
In Tullamore, which is only 1 hour commute from Heuston, you can get a 3 bed for 275,000 + either 2 years free mortgage or 1 year free mortgage + extensive kit out.
It is blatantly about the estate agents, etc. keeping the prices high. |

Is is not technically mortgage fraud if you get a loan to the full cost price of a house when the "cost" isn't accurate? |
I work for Halifax and can confirm that we would count the value of all that stuff against the value of the house when determining Loan to Value ratios.
I doubt it'd be considered mortgage fraud though. |

So for a FTB: Hypothetical house for 300k. Been on the market for a year, developer getting shifty so throws in freebies (kitchen + small car worth 15k) to make bank value the house at say 275k. Now that the 100% is gone the way of the dodo, banks want 92% LTV so an FTB can only get 253k on this place leaving them to come up with a whopping 47k to pay the developer 300k. Am I missing something here? I'm not qualified in building at all but is the developer not making a whopper of a mistake by not lowering the price? |
We still offer 100% mortgages. [/spam]
But yes, in the situation you describe, the buyer (or, as we're increasingly seeing, the parents) need to come up with quite a bit of funds to get the sale through. |

obviously not the car, but good quality fittings( or are they fixtures) would add to the value of a house. like a kitchen or tiling or floors. |
Yes, sorry should have been clearer. Fixtures and fittings would be included, movables would not.
