I lived in the batter for years only left to get a bigger house after kids. Loved it. Loads of nice places to eat and drink (and i'm not a hipster :) ) I would kinda agree the further down towards the luas the better. My one tip would be try to think of orientation. We had an easterly back and...

Would you think about selling now and getting a negative equity mover mortgage. You dont need a 20% deposit for those?

I have a gas boilder behind a gas firplace. Baxi model and the only people I found to service them was Bord Gais. Anyone else who heard it was a behind a gas fire said they wont do them, including energia our gas supplier. .

Not true what brendan said that "You won't be able to make firm offers on any house until you have exchanged contracts on your own" we did and lots of people do. it depends on the buyers and their situation and how many people are interested in the house and all of their situations. We ported a...

If your house isnt at least sale agreed and the house you are interested in has lots of interested parties then you might not be an attractive purchaser. There was a lot of cash buyers out there or at least chainless buyers which are much more attractive than ones with chains. We were told by...

Well i had an electrolux induction hob (or zanussi) but pretty sure Elextrolux anyway they are the same company for 6 1/2 years in our old house, had to leave it behind when we moved. There was never a problem with it and i'd buy one again when we finally get around to doing the new kitchen

We recently moved and left behind an induction hob and it is the thing i miss most. I now have a ceramic hob and the slowness of it drives me crazy. Anyway we had an Electrolux hob and never had a problem with it, 6 1/2 years when we left the house. I loved the clean lines and the easiness of it...

Ours didnt, they got info from the vendor saying any additions were exempted but did advise us to get a planning search done on the property to verify this as well as check for any planning applications in the area that might effect us.

Prior to exchange of contract or completion? Signing contracts which is what the OP asked here. OP definitely prior to completion as Gianni said to make sure they took their junk. Prior to signing your contracts, It is no harm asking the estate agent can you see it again but

UPC broadband speed is excellent but dont get the Horizon tv package. We switched recently to it (as we moved house) and it is awful.

Having recently sold and purchased (with no issues) , our solicitor told us if a case like this was to occur the only thing we could do was issue them with a 28 days notice (not sure of the exact name) so yea in effect sue them. What a nightmare scenario, l feel for you.

I moved house and lost a tracker...we had to our old house was totally unsuitable for 2 small kids I hated doing it but i did and a lot of people in our situation did the same. I feel for you Nonie but i'm just telling you people did move and choose to lose trackers

Thanks Steven, I know i just wanted to check i was not missing something as i thought i found a supplier that did a per lift charge only but cant find it anymore

I know!! Maybe i'll have to get the older guy out of them out of them asap :-) Thanks derek i'll have a look at greenstar.

I have just moved to Dun Laoghaire and i need help choosing bins. The link on the dlrcc website sends me to a list of supplies for Dublin City so half of them dont do dlrcc. Is Panda the only supplier? Nearly all neighbours have panda bins. I have never had bins before, we used bin bags in...

Well in Dublin different estate agents deal with it differently. Some set a low asking price to bring in loads of people and hope to get the bidding starting, others ask on the high side near where they want to finish. I saw one asking on the low side, well we didnt think it was very low but...

Well as the second offer is still not over the asking that makes the scenario more believable. It happened me a few months ago and i was the seller. The first offer was about 15% lower than asking and the next offer (the next day) went to asking (up by 30k). I didn't refuse the first offer, I...

My bank wouldnt release the funds for the house to the solicitor untill i had insurance in place. I didnt need it from the contract signing and my solicitor didnt mention it and she is very thorough. So i put home insurance in place from 2 weeks before the closing date.

And the buyer holds the money. You cant be forced to buy a house for more than you want or in an area you don't want to. You hold as much power as the seller it is just harder not to be ruled by your heart.

I sold a investment property at the end of 2012 but i made a loss. I'm doing my tax return online Form11 for the rental income (very late i know) and cant figure out if i need to put the details of the loss down anywhere eg CGT or anything else. Can anyone help? Thanks
