This morning.

Fed-up, rent-robbed student converts old sweet shop into luxury dwelling.

Now, why can’t you show the same ingenuity?

He got up off his behind and did something.

Instead of whinging.

Thought you might be interested in this for your ongoing tracking of crazy Dublin property rents/prices.

This place (top) was bought last August for €375k (Property Price Register) and credit to them they’ve done a lovely job with the refurb, but the asking rent is simply bananas!

I live in a similar property nearby, and there’s barely room to swing a cat in these houses. Mercifully it doesn’t seem to have let yet at that price and it has been up for nearly a month (extremely rare in this area), but surely no idiot(s) are going to rent this.

At that rental value you could buy the place and do it up for the same cost as 9 years rent. I keep a close enough watch on Dublin property prices and rents, but this was beyond anything I’ve seen to date. The mind boggles!

Sale Agreed: 77 Gordon Street, Ringsend (MyHome.ie)

Gordon Street, Ringsend, Dublin 4, South Dublin City (Daft)

Number 34 was purchased in 2016 by solicitor Mark Foster for €300,000. “It was totally dilapidated,” says Foster “There was a hole in the roof where water had been pouring in for over a year, we had to knock everything, apart from three walls.”

…This is Foster’s second foray into flipping houses on the street, “the location is second to none, and the views from the attic at night remind me of the New York skyline”, he says referring to views of contemporary buildings intermixed with period properties.

Ah here.
