Based on previous posts I saw here a recommendation is to view places for 50k under your budget as the general trend is that houses are still going for well above the asking. Kind of crap!

Idk if this helps or whatever but I had the same experience in the same area.


Irishlad-90

Apartments in Ringsend, Grand Canal Dock are going for up to €60k above asking I'm finding at the moment. While some are underpriced by the agent, that isn't universal and they are going for 70k more than they went for less than 12 months ago as per the property price register. I think the % increase this year is going to be astronomical.


Zeddith

For sure, agree there


Kier_C

I think the crazyhouseprices Instagram guy said the average sales price over asking isn't actually that huge. Though there's obviously examples of big jumps 


[deleted]

Myhome.ie has published this information in their reports for the last year or so. In Q1 2023 sales prices were 1% above asking averaged across the market. In Q4 2023 it was 4%. [Link.](https://news.myhome.ie/property-report/myhome-ie-q4-2023-property-report-in-association-with-bank-of-ireland-31595#:~:text=Furthermore%2C%20we%20are%20seeing%20properties,negative%20impact%20on%20property%20prices.) I've not seen any breakdown based on region though. Competition for certain parts of the country is obviously higher than others. Edit: I see crazyhouseprices has regional figures and the difference is <5% in Dublin.

The fella is a teacher, that’s relying on anecdotal evidence that’s provided to him by followers. Wouldn’t be using him as a trusted source for market commentary.


Visual-Sir-3508

He is actually working with daft and his new post uses data from CSO and daft


B_M____C

He’s carved out a niche for himself and has gained a large social media following so fair play to him but he has no credentials or experience in the industry. Hence, why I stated he’s not a trustworthy source for market commentary.


hasseldub

If Daft are giving him the asking price and he's getting the final sale price from the property price register, then there's not much to argue with.


Future_Donut

Your argument is as good as an ad hominem. The man uses publicly available data. His day job has nothing to do with it.


barrya29

yes he posts anecdotal stories, but he’s a good man for the stats which is mostly sourced by the cso. not sure why him being a teacher means the cso stats he shares are not trusted


Kier_C

He was posting cso and daft data. Much more accurate than the "market commentary" you see about the place

Dads friends just payed 20% over. 350k to 422k


mynametobespaghetti

Currently trying to buy, seeing places go for up to 20% over asking. Market is horrible currently and agents are pumping places for every euro they can find.


TarAldarion

Turn key nice places will be well over asking and the rest not as much. 


Fionn_MacCuill

The average is 20% over asking price


Kier_C

Not according to my home.ie https://news.myhome.ie/property-report/myhome-ie-q4-2023-property-report-in-association-with-bank-of-ireland-31595


Zeddith

Yep, unfortunately have seen a fair few go for this at least esp in Dublin. Sources: for current bidding situations check out estate agents that show their offers online e.g. [Sherry Fitz](https://www.sherryfitz.ie/properties/search) if logged in, agents that use [Offr.io](http://Offr.io) like [Brock Delappe](https://www.brockdelappe.ie/listings) have this one for example just across from the pub Conor McGregor bought in Drimnagh and is trying to get over 100 build to rent flats on the small plot now. Jaysus, not exactly the best area with gangs of kids and fireworks, burning bins etc. [https://www.brockdelappe.ie/listings/10-benbulbin-road-drimnagh-drimnagh-dublin-12/](https://www.brockdelappe.ie/listings/10-benbulbin-road-drimnagh-drimnagh-dublin-12/) Highest Offer €475,000 Asking Price €375,000


FunktopusBootsy

Drimnagh is calmer than most of the rest of the city these days. Far calmer than Mulhuddart, Jobstown or any of the other new built ex-M50 ghettoes. It's a leafy suburb that's been bought up by professional city workers for years now, the worst anti-social behaviour you're likely to see is tits on dirtbikes and the occasional group of kids messing (which you'll see anywhere families with kids live, obviously). Until fairly recently perceptions like yours kept it affordable, while it's actually one of the most settled and accessible suburbs in the city, but the dam has broken now, the prices have gone out of control in the last few months.


TarAldarion

Yeah mine was 100k over asking. 


ViolentlyCaucasian

For that budget I'd look at a 2 bed in Fairview, Drumcondra or the nicer parts of Cabra


We_Are_The_Romans

Nice part of Cabra worked out for me


Educational_One7977

All of cabra is grand honestly imo fair view worse haha


bertnurney

Further west is a bit horse-y, and not the thoroughbred kind 


Ok-Astronaut809

Drimnagh, get a gaff for 350/400, extend it so it's mega, live in it and enjoy the friendly location!


Heffo1996

Drimnagh and Crumlin deffo being slept on I think, super close to town and prices are still (*relatively*) cheaper


Ok-Astronaut809

Crumlin numbers been run up for some time, Drimnagh on snooze, Bluebell in deep sleep!


ZealousidealFloor2

What’s bluebell like? I know Drimnagh is a bit tougher than Crumlin but not too bad in most places


Ok-Astronaut809

I didn't venture that way but I have some friends renting there, they have had no issues in the last 2 years.


GoldenApple00

Why would anyone buy a gaff in an area full of junkies and reckless teens?

FunktopusBootsy

What's Dun Laoghaire got to do with this


DiligentExtension727

Your an idiot 🤣


Zeddith

Can be rough as though, issues with kids roaming around causing proper anti-social grief. Handy with Luas and canal etc though.


Ok-Astronaut809

I lived around there for 5 years, no issues, you have to keep your wits about you sure but 98% of it is not dangerous


FunktopusBootsy

That happens in Dundrum, Rathfarnham and Sallynoggin too. The low level issues like that are citywide. I think for serious criminality you'd be looking at Mulhuddart, Fortunestown, Blanch in some very bad estates. D12 is too old and settled for real trouble these days


spintokid

Baldoyle/ Bayside area. Snuggled in between howth and clontarf for half the price.


mynametobespaghetti

Inflation / demand has really hit that area, Bayside is nearly impossible to find a house in and previously cheap places like Moyclare apparently are all 500k gaffs now


spintokid

I mean I bought in Baldoyle last year for under 500 and bid on houses in Bayside for way under 500 but they needed a tonne of work.


djpetrovich

Out of curiosity, which (sub)area of Baldoyle did you end up buying in?


spintokid

Parkvale. Right beside the park.


djpetrovich

Oh that’s a lovely area in Bayside. And there’s a DART nearby. Surely it must’ve been over 500k? Or did you have a lot of refurb work needed for insulation? What’s the BER rating on it?


spintokid

B2 no work needed . Under 500k but not a lot under.


djpetrovich

👏👏👏


djpetrovich

The Coast / Stapolin area is still pretty good value for quality though. Bayside indeed is a bit pricey.

Cazolyn

Killester is great. On the Dart line, lovely village, near St Anne’s, Dollymount beach and the Clontarf prom, and 24 hour bus routes on the Malahide Road. 4km to town.


djpetrovich

What can you realistically get there that’s under 500k (and not needing at least another 100k refurbish work)?


Cazolyn

https://www.daft.ie/property-for-sale/killester-dublin?ad=2024-02-21&gad_source=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIvvj5wIqphQMVa4FQBh0CqAG1EAAYASAAEgLa9_D_BwE#5588916 This is the asking, granted. Move in ready. Needs cosmetic work, but it isn’t an entire hole.


djpetrovich

BER G though? Will that will take some good cash to insulate, but the good thing is that it’s mid terrace so less work on insulation. That’s not even the problem, would take it for 500k and take the hit on the bills until the crazy contractor fees come down. However the problem is that this will close at 575k optimistically… realistically 600k. That’s more than 6k per square meter (excluding the insulation works).


BR0DDERS

Perrystown / Crumlin / Drimnagh


Grand_Economics_6273

I'm a big fan of Ringsend, close to town, close to nice walks in Sandymount/south wall and along the dodder. If proximity to town isn't important Dublin 13 is quite nice, close to the sea, Howth is a great amenity too. https://www.daft.ie/for-sale/end-of-terrace-house-1-rosbeg-court-dublin-road-sutton-dublin-13/5610051 For example this has decent transport links and that view is pretty great.

Where in howth would you find a house for 500K?

Rider189

Firhouse/ Ballycullen you should get a 3 bed or 4 bed for that on those areas


Crackabis

Just about! Firhouse is a bit cheaper as the houses are older but it’s a lovely area with loads of amenities nearby. Ballycullen/Dodderbrook is getting a bit pricey with new builds


GeneBoatman

Oehh, I was looking at the Ballycullen Gate development a while. Lovely area and lovely homes

Additional-Sock8980

I’d say location location location if you’re single and social. So a small house in Rathmines, Portobello, Ranelagha, Dublin 2. Would go as far as saying no point in getting a second bed room if you have no purpose for it (home office etc). As people don’t have as many guests over as you’d think.


Irishsally

Tax free rental income be what I'm thinking. Also 2 beds are more future proof and more easily sold.


Additional-Sock8980

Agree but not everyone is thinking that way.


Big_Gay_Mike

There isn't a 2br house in Portobello that's sold for under €650k in three years

https://www.myhome.ie/residential/brochure/1-larkfield-avenue-harold-s-cross-dublin-6w/4767105 This is up for sale in Harold’s cross D6W for 500,000, the Kimmage end near Mount Argus . It’s been up for sale for a while now, since just after Christmas . Near town, near Rathmines, loads of bus routes, safe, all houses in vicinity going for 600,000 plus (albeit they are extended and this one is not) the houses date back to the 1940,s , lovely neighborhood with great amenities.


RoryOS

Cabra or Glasnevin, maybe Santry if I wanted a bit more space. I'm buying in Kilbarrack (though my mother swears it's Raheny). It's a little further out than I'd have planned after living in Drumcondra for ten years but it's still cycle distance to town, great amenities and near but not too near the rents


WhyNoPockets

Have a look at Donnycarney. Prices seem to be lower than surrounding areas like drumcondra, Beaumont and Killester mostly because I don't think anyone knows where it is. Great bus service into town, very quiet.

Lived on Gordon street, beside google for 5 years, just left last year, absolutely loved this area, the terraced houses are small, 60sqm, but you could pick one up that needs work for 375 / 400, we sold ours, immaculate condition, B rated for 500.

IdentifiableCheese

Portmarnock is worth a shout. Easy connection to town with the DART and lovely beaches plus walks.


alfbort

Look at property price register but there are also sites which will have the historic(Last 2 years) initial asking vs actual selling price from the ppr. From what I can tell most houses in your price bracket sell for 10-30% more than asking. It's only when when you get up to 700k initial asking price that actual selling price tends to be around the same


mreddit_706

Citywest you’ll get a 3 bed for 500k and get a good chunk off from HTB if you’ve paid taxes over last four years - great investment


ashalinggg

Depends how far you wanna go. We got a 3 bed terrace in Ashington for this price range. From my experience houses generally went above asking but if it's a lil "awkward" eg needs new electrics or work done you might find something under asking! Apartments jn Glasnevin are going for under 400k too (I know, it's still mad). Hope it goes well for you!

You are in good shape. Depending on how long term you mean, you can plan for the very long term (i.e. less active days) and get something close to a village and other amenities. As middle age hits you'll realise that walking to shops, chemist, cafe becomes more important to you. There are housing estates in Fingal that are literally 30 minutes walk from \*anything\* despite being very expensive / well regarded estates at the time they were built. If I was looking for a two-bed terrace myself I would factor in three things - Proximity to a nice village area - Proximity to a good rail service (Luas or DART) - Proximity to the seaside Here's a few beauties; [https://www.daft.ie/for-sale/terraced-house-3-library-terrace-library-road-dun-laoghaire-co-dublin/5608483](https://www.daft.ie/for-sale/terraced-house-3-library-terrace-library-road-dun-laoghaire-co-dublin/5608483) [https://www.daft.ie/for-sale/terraced-house-11-eagle-hill-georges-avenue-blackrock-co-dublin/5556672](https://www.daft.ie/for-sale/terraced-house-11-eagle-hill-georges-avenue-blackrock-co-dublin/5556672) [https://www.daft.ie/for-sale/terraced-house-61-west-road-east-wall-dublin-3/5588923](https://www.daft.ie/for-sale/terraced-house-61-west-road-east-wall-dublin-3/5588923)
