Why use Owners Direct    Buying Irish Property     Selling Irish Property   Irish Property Rental    Dublin Property   Searching Irish Property   Irish Homes   Advertising   Irish Mortgages

 

 

Why use Owners Direct .ie Obviously, you should advertise on as many sites as possible but the most popular property website in Ireland Daft.ie does not allow you to advertise your property direct for private sale as you have to go through Irish Estate Agents.   You could approach an estate agent to get your property listed on daft.ie but that will cost you €000’s or you could use other sites like privateseller.ie which does offer direct advertisements for the private seller but you will pay a substantial amount. With Owners Direct .ie you pay €9.99, so catches, no small print. 

 

 

 

 

Buying Irish Property
Obviously, great care should be taken when buying property in any country in the world and the same is true of Ireland. If you purchase property from a man you meet in a bar you are asking for trouble, but by following a few simple common sense rules it is a very straight forward and safe process. Buyers should take care that they do not buy a vastly over priced or over valued property by studying the local markets in Ireland before hand, comparing not just the actual price but the location as well. Remember it is easy to get carried away when you are in the process of buying property in Ireland with a fist full of money looking for that dream home, so take care before you sign anything. 

 

Be careful of the property.ie sites that are looking for lots of personal details or deposits. Reputable sites like owners-direct.ie are advertising sites where you pay for advertisement only and we do not get involved in the buying process. So once you make contact with the owner directly via owners-direct.ie then we do not have any further contact. We make the introduction, you need to apply due caution thereafter.

 

 

Selling Irish Property Privately
Much of the above is true about selling your home in Ireland, with or without an Irish estate agent. With the aid of a good Irish property lawyer the whole transaction can be finished quickly and with little fuss. Irish property is still selling if the price is right, although it can said that there are not the number of buyers around as there was a few years ago. Visit all the local agents and consider selling it your self or at the very least advertising your property online with a site like owners direct.ie.

 

Irish Property Rental
Irish property rental is still a big part of the economy of Ireland, with thousands of visitors each year renting direct from owners and Irish agents. If you just put a small advert in your local paper and then sit back, you won't get many bookings! But with a little imagination and marketing, good returns are possible. Visitors to Ireland are looking to find a holiday home in the west or apartment in Dublin, Galway or Cork to rent for their summer holiday will find plenty of information here, with loads of accommodation ready to book in many top locations, resorts and combinations available. Independent travel is a very simple process and by booking direct you can save loads of money by avoiding travel agents commissions.

Irish Homes
If you need some more guidance on the variations of different types of homes available in Ireland, with an explanation of some of the terms used;

 

Some basic stuff first about the terms that you will find relating to Irish homes (the experts might want to skip the first couple of paragraphs).

 

Apartments

In the UK these would probably be called a "Flat", in the USA a "Condo" or "condominium". These could be in anything from a tower block to a two storey home.

 

Duplex

This is a home split over two floors, it could be in a large apartment block or even just a 2 storey house, so you could have a "duplex apartment" or "duplex townhouse" for example.

 

Triplex

This is the same as a duplex but spread over three floors.

 

Bungalow

Now this is where it gets confusing, a bungalow is a single storey home as we all know but a dormer bungalow has a second floor.

 

Townhouse

Fancy name for a terrace or connected row or block of homes all joined together, usually with 2 or 3 floors. 

 

Chalet or Chalet Bungalow

A chalet or detached chalet is a detached home or a detached bungalow often in the country.

 

Off Plan

An off plan property is a home that has not been built yet or in some cases it may be partially constructed. When viewing, buyers are shown either a mock up or one that has already been finished and the position on the site where yours would be built. Due to the complexity of dealing directly with Irish builders many of who are now bankrupt, you need to take care.

 

Resale

This is an easy one, resale property is a second hand home, if you have the money, you can buy in a matter of a few days and quite often sold furnished.

 

Community

The majority of homes built today, whether in a block or detached, belong to a "community" which might consist of 30 or 300 various dwellings. Every year a meeting of all the owners decides what and how to spend money on, for example there might be communal swimming pools and gardens to look after, or maintenance of the exteriors to ensure they are painted regularly. Make sure your Irish lawyer investigates all the fine print about you responsibilities to the ‘community’.
