We moved house recently and are now selling our former house. It is listed in MyHome.ie for €295,000. The auctioneer recommended it be listed at this price to get more people to view it – he thinks we should be able to get €315,000 for it (or more if we are lucky!).

It is a corner house in a good location, recently painted, with 3 bedrooms, a bathroom, guest toilet, a new kitchen (price includes all the kitchen appliances), 3 gardens (front, side and back) and a driveway for a car.

If anyone has any interest or would like to know more, feel free to call/email me or leave a comment here.

UPDATE:
The auctioneer called me this morning to say we have an offer of €305,000

The house is now sold – thanks for your interest.

    By god that’s a yellow kitchen! I’ll give you my entire house-buying budget of eigth euros and seventy-six cents, can’t say fairer than that, eh?

    Anyway, one of the lads on Open created a website for a house he was trying to shift a while back, and I remember thinking at the time that it was a good idea. Dunno how successful he was, but for the price of a domain and a few hours putting it together, is there really a downside?

    (You get a free domain with the Office Live beta if you tell a couple porkies on the application form (I am a business, I am in the US), and the web-building tools are excellent. This is a hint.)

    This is a hint

    Thanks for the clarification Adam, I wouldn’t have picked up on that otherwise! ;-)

    Good idea though, I’ll deffo check it out, nice one.

    D’oh!

    You are not using a recent version of Internet Explorer and need to download it in order to use Office Live.

    Well, there goes that idea!

    Use another machine. Free domain, remember?

    I’d buy it if it wasn’t in Cork :-P

    Ed – the house is literally 5 minutes drive from the airport – with Ryanair now doing 1c flights from Cork to Dublin and the money you’d save buying this house vs. an equivalent in Dublin, I think it’d make economic sense for you to buy it!
