In this neck of the wood at least house prices are actually firming, it's a question of supply and demand.The money supply at 20.75 trillion is falling and down a trillion in the past 15 months or so.
A look at Zillow.com shows house prices in this area falling like a stone.
So maybe deflation is about to hit instead.
Inability to pay property taxes, and you lose your house very fast.
It's a question of how to pay for them realistically without compromising the rest of your life.In this neck of the wood at least house prices are actually firming, it's a question of supply and demand.
Actively seeking a house here and there are very few decent properties on the market, those that do come up basically sell within a week. There are people about with the cash, maybe its an inheritence, maybe they are returning from the UK or perhaps they just happen to have good jobs, but the money is there for some.It's a question of how to pay for them realistically without compromising the rest of your life.
What you want and can afford are often too very different things especially when the repayments hike up as they have.
Interest rates were essentially negative for a decade.
All sorts of imprudent decisions followed.
These people should never be employed again.https://www.thejournal.ie/pfizer-to-cut-100-jobs-at-newbridge-6217175-Nov2023/
No problem roading people when demand for jibby jabby fell through the floor

The Irish property market is completely artificial due to the incoming multitudes. That insanity can't last.Actively seeking a house here and there are very few decent properties on the market, those that do come up basically sell within a week.

The Japanese built the best quality things in the world, Germany was next but theirs always had a catch.Looks like the Yen is in trouble, as predicted.
And I must say, very good food. Irish domestic food only improve for the last 10 years. Right now mostA feature of the US was always very affordable food. Not any longer.
The stuffing must be = = Cocaine !Dan will have to get a turkey soon for the Thanksgiving.....I predict in this biden economy it will cost approximately $120 dollars this year
Taiwan products are very good quality.The Japanese built the best quality things in the world, Germany was next but theirs always had a catch.
So after all their effort they are in decline. They are the biggest USA bond holders, probably worried
they will need America to defend them some day.
When I was 24 I bought what I believed to be a cheap Chinese 3 ft metal working lathe. I now know it
was made in Taiwan. I have it a life time and while some of the peripheral stuff is basic but functional, the
essentials are very high quality. It was an excellent buy.
I really wish things were that simple, the supply just isn't there and a huge number of people are on the government payroll which means their income is 99% secure, so I really can't see prices plummeting.The Irish property market is completely artificial due to the incoming multitudes. That insanity can't last.
I am waiting til it crashes and still might not buy because the future looks so bleak
It would be crazy to buy now.
Good point, each year the average cost of turkey plus the basics side dishes is published and surely it will be more than 10% higher.Dan will have to get a turkey soon for the Thanksgiving.....I predict in this biden economy it will cost approximately $120 dollars this year
Back then 13bn was a lot of money, but now? FFG would piss it up against the wall tomorrow if Fond of Lying told them to.There is a preliminary judgement due today over the 13 billion apple tax situation from 2013.... remember enda Kenny fighting as hard as he could to not collect that tax .......well I have a feeling the judgement will go the way of apple and the Irish government , not the Irish people
Explained: The latest twist in the Apple tax case saga
Today saw the latest development in the long running saga that is the Apple tax case, as the Advocate General of the EU's highest court proposed that the court should set aside the judgment of the lower General Court in the case and refer it back to the General Court for a new decisionwww.rte.ie
