Bring back the mouse

Intersection of nternet shenanigans and karma?

She was in jovial mood in the market on Saturday . Her mind was made up I’d say!

You’ll have to ask CM.

The Soc Dems weren’t woke enough for her.

They are still finding their feet

What is the going rate for a home in… Limerick?

There are homes to suit a range of buyers and budgets in Limerick city and county

With a population of 104,952 within its metropolitan district alone, according to the 2016 census, and location within a catchment area of one million people living along the Cork-Limerick-Galway corridor, it’s not surprising that the residential property market of Limerick city and county is a vibrant one.

The presence of major international employers such as Johnson & Johnson subsidiary Vistakon and Cook Medical Devices at the National Technology Park; the University of Limerick’s reputation as one of Ireland’s finest third-level institutions; and Shannon Airport all serve to drive the demand for homes.

That demand is likely to increase given the growing momentum behind Limerick’s ongoing regeneration, with renewed impetus following the recent establishment of Liveable Limerick, a group of social volunteers chaired by former Department of Finance secretary general John Moran.

Asked for her take on Limerick’s residential property market, Ailbhe O’Malley, director at Sherry FitzGerald Limerick, says: “Prior to the arrival of the coronavirus we were experiencing strong sales across most areas of Limerick and in most price brackets. The first-time buyer market was particularly strong, but there was also good activity from more mature buyers returning to the city from their larger family homes in the county once their older children had left for university and work.”

“We have continued to trade through Covid-19, and sales have taken place with no evidence as yet of any fall in prices. The lack of stock going forward will be an issue for us as people take a wait-and-see approach, and this could prevent prices falling dramatically.

“The most interesting new phenomenon since Covid are the buyers considering a return to Limerick having lived in larger cities abroad or in Dublin. They now see Limerick as a good option with a better quality of life, affordable housing stock and good schools all available.”

Giltinane :laughing:.He’s some fuckin gangster.

Are you tempted @Fagan_ODowd ?

Is Pat Chester still in the property business down there

I donno about that outdoor bathtub though…

Chesser. Company is still going, whether he’s still involved

He is

He was a great character. Was he high up in the rugby as well.

Well he sold me my house 4 years ago, and by sold he walked us into the viewing, sat down at the kitchen table with his newspaper and told us to work away ourselves.
Then I had to chase the prick for weeks to get everything sorted.
Then he got 2% of the sale.
Fucking estate agents
