I just want to express my anger with the property market in this country and the greed it generated over the last few years.
My wife and I have been renting a 2 bedroom appt over the last 4 years in Raheny and the rent has been increased every single year without any improvement made to the appt. We received the annual lease renewal last week informing us that the rent is put up an additional €40
We're expecting in 3 month time and my wife who's irish just lost her job. She may not get redundancy from the company since it was a small company. I'm earning a descent salary (50k€) and we're still struggling with our savings.
What's wrong with the system ? We don't drink, don't smoke, do go out to the restaurant. We just spend time with friends.
I'm really p..... off !!!! >: >: >:
I'm originally from France (Paris) and my friends can't believe Dublin is more expensive than Paris. For everything.
We even compare prices between supermarket in Dublin and Paris to shop for small items and clothes.
Sorry to bother you with this thread but I really wanted to express my anger. We might end leaving Ireland because of the cost of living.
