You’d get better value in the apartment market in Limerick mate.
90k to buy now…800 rent per month that’s a no brainer if you have the spare cash…I got my deposit back when I left the apartment I was in from an American bank.
They probably got it off a Nama sale for 50k as a distressed property as the landlord went bankrupt.
Its not an investment property I’m looking at, but if things went tits up I’d be able to rent it out easily if you get me. Could maybe get 900 a month on it but renting it out wouldn’t be initial aim. Repayments would be less than 800 a month anyway. What way would they tax you on the rental income? Upper rate 40%?
Taxman would be taking a pile of it so. 900 a month but at 40% meaning taxman gets 360 a month of it. 540 a month after tax into the pocket wouldn’t cover the mortgage.
Where in Limerick would you get a house for 145 outside of Moyross and South hill? Mate at work is trying to buy a house for the last 2 years around caherdavin, clareview, Raheen etc. They all start at around 160 but bidding finishes at 210 and up.
You’d get plenty of houses across the city for 145…probably have to do it up etc…but you’re way off the mark if you think anyone would pay that for a house in Southill or Moyross.
