Social Democrats Housing Spokesperson Cian O’Callaghan said:

“The extent of personal banking information that is reportedly being sought, to secure a viewing, is extremely concerning – as well as being a potential breach of GDPR.

“Why does an estate agent need to be provided with detailed financial information for the sole purpose of organising a viewing of a property – following which, a client may or may not opt to bid for the property?

‘Knowledge of mortgage approval should only be required if a client wishes to proceed to bid on a property. Even then, there is no reason why an estate agent should be provided with detailed bank statements.”

Anyone?

We are a collaborative group of 7 visual artists currently studying at the National College of Art and Design.  In response to the recent jump in Irish property prices and the presence of Ghost Estates throughout the country, we have created Spectre Estates, a multi media intervention posing as an estate agency.  Given the current trend of socially engaged art, we believe the current housing crisis merits cultural critique.
