Hi all, Can somebody please clarify if the new act covers mortgages taken out in 2007? Thanks.

I realize that it has been over 3 years since the last post and 5 years since the legislation change question was posed......but.... Did the overhaul of the legislation ever get completed? Can AH owners who bought pre 2010 now re-mortgage without triggering the clawback?

just wondering guys, how much did ye pay for the allocated units?

Hi, I was just wondering if anybody has the answers to the following question... 1. The price of the houses being offered in Old Quarter, and subsequent clawback? 2. The house location within the development? (ie, separated from, or dotted amongst, the 'regular' houses) 3. The total...

Please note that a new forum to discuss residential issues et al has been set up on neighbours.ie....my alias on this site is dr.zaius

Yeah, I have noticed that alright. I will be around the area on weekend and will attempt to talk to residents of N5 block, re: setting up of communal refuse collection. It should be cheaper overall to have a large bin for waste. We are putting in timber flooring throughout, (except bathroom...

Cheers Buck...talk to ye soon...

Thanks Princess....Just wondering if anybody has undertaken to set up refuse collection?

Hi Lads, We received keys yesterday afternoon, YIPPPEEEE!!!! The weather has put a bit of a dampner on the whole thing though. We are looking forward to getting the place kitted out and meeting some of the neighbours. I noticed a lot of the Affordable units are occupied, blinds, curtains up...

Hi lads, After much toying around they have agreed to replace our front door. They are anxious the sale goes ahead soon. Hopefully we will have our keys soon after that, at last. Re: the bin collection situation. I understand that a number of residents have already moved in. What...

No, did you get yours replaced? Did you approach some one higher up the food chain?

No interview performed...We just received offer through the post back in February...Have they a new system in place to determine unit allocations going forward?

We are still awaiting final snag completion - basically our front door needs replacing but thay are dragging their heels. The site manager is slow to answer e-mails or phone calls. Our solicitor has lodged the Mortgage cheque to his account and is waiting on our approval before completing...

You are right and that's a good idea...might save a bit as well...only problem is some people are already in and may have organised something in the meantime, plus not all are reading ths forum... Will have to make do anyway, have you got keys yet?

I was under the impression that this was included as part of the Management Fees...I will ask solicitor to clarify this point, as well as asking site manager if she has any idea...seems strange though?? What about all other apartments, houses on site? Do they have to set up refuse collection...

I was down last Thursday to do final, final inspection of the apt. and sign off. However, they still have not replaced the front door as requested. Site manager was adamant that since it opens/closes without a problem, they will not change it. I dug my heels in and demanded they replace it...

The solicitor is holding on to it while dealing with CCC solicitor. He has informed them that we have their deposit (3%) plus another 15% (part of savings) and the loan offer waiting to be drawn down. He says once they can smell the money they usually start taking things seriously, I hope...

I feared as much about that fence, looks terrible...The laneway is open along one side onto parkland with housing estate beyond. This stretches for a couple hundred feet. I doubt the council would border fence and gate this laneway if the in situ locals have not petitioned already. I hope...

Just wondering if anybody has any information regarding east boundary wall. At present the gable ends of Blocks 4 and 5, and the rear of blocks 1-3 are bordering an eight foot steel fence. Beyond this fence, by about 15 feet, is the old and crumbling, (in most places), Ursuline Convent wall...

Hi Buck, any feedback from developer re: front door damage and kitchen plumbing... We have also complained about some of the window frames being slightly chipped/damaged. It's obvious that they are cast offs from 'Regular Development' or damaged in transit - front/back door included Give...
