I currently own a company in another European country where I live and pay tax. They have a double tax treaty with Ireland. I'm resident there 8-9 months of the year and spend the rest of the time in Ireland or overseas.

I am currently considering purchasing property in Ireland and wondering if this could in any way effect my tax status in Ireland?
 
What if I was to purchase property and not let it, but use it to live in when I'm in the country?

On the basis out lined you will not be considered resident in Ireland for tax purposes personally. Any income from Irish property is subject to Irish tax. Any capital gains on Irish property is subject to Irish tax. You would I'd imagine be subject to income tax and capital gains tax in the country of residence and rely on the DTA for relief.

You also need to be careful that if you use that property yourself that it does not give you a permanent establishment and therefore subject to Irish tax on trading income.
