Am I right in saying that KIB is criticising NAMA for selling properties for more than they paid for them?

no.

Dan,
you can’t compare London to Dublin (or the rest of the country for that matter)
the right approach in London is not the right approach here.
Liquidate the Irish loan book already.
Look at Priory Hall, the residents are now effectively jumping the social housing queue because NAMA needs the PR.
The Irish market is still falling, with Allsops the only place I’ve seen yields over 9%.
Based on any long term valuation method you like, we’ve a way to go yet.
Inflation at 2% won’t see a recovery of peak prices in our lifetime.

KIB, to answer your question, Dan is correct in that the distressed auctions are making 9-10 % in Dublin with tenants in situ. These are very much in the minority, but a welcome sign nonetheless. If (and it’s a very big if) this trend continues, we may have found realistic values. I doubt it though, there are signs that the level of interest is decreasing, and the demographic of bidders has changed from the first to the last Allsop auction. Another few auctions will tell an awful lot.

Yeah agreed. If anything yields are going to get higher in those auctions coz tenantd props will sell for lesd People buying with no eng certs etc no comeback for flaws.

Agree that NAMA shoul liquidate the book for purposes of finding real values but will that not back up KIB argument on selling below ‘value’? Would be great for me. To offload they will need to sell 2 beds for sub 100 k. Will increase losses in Irish banks though, and there will be upside at those values. To extract max value for taxpayer I think they need to hold med term though. COF will likely be far less than the yields available.

For the record, don’t think iv said anything contrary to this.

The woman who has been on Gallagher’s case in the past 24hrs, is now a panelist with Vincent.

That mong Fionnan Sheehan referring to Hugh ‘Ormond’ rather than ‘Morgan’.

Vincent to Ivana Bacik:

“Ah Ivana - that’s the kind of blather we usually get from Fianna Fáil people!”

Who’s Fionnan married to?

Morgan can be a particularly difficult name to pronounce, especially when you’re ginger and thick.

That Averil Power wan.

There’s surely more to this one than meets the eye?

What’s her name?

glenna lynch

do your thing mac

It’s been said before, but what a fucking dweeb Fionnan Sheehan is. I would love if Vincent dragged him out from behind the desk one night and battered him.

Preliminary scanning of politics.ie says she runs a furniture business called Mimosa Interiors which apparently have premises in Dun Laoghaire and Donnybrook. She also apparently had a house in Wexford for sale or 875k a couple of years ago.

Her son twittered the following: “she’s never been affiliated with any party, but up until a couple of years ago she generally voted fianna fail.”

:lol:

I couldn’t believe nobody corrected him, he said it about 10 times. Wasn’t Hugh Ormonde one of the high kings of Ireland or something like that?
Huey Morgan is also your man from the Fun Loving Criminals. It’d be marvelous if it had actually had been either of those two who Gallagher was presenting with a photo in exchange for a wheelbarrow full of cash.

Also, two other things. I’d ride the hole off Ivana Bacik any day of the week…
And, doesn’t Fionnan’s hair look like regular hair which is just growing 90 degrees the wrong way. It’s a fascinating hairdo he has.
