All these houses were based around Stoney batter, Dublin 7 . I like this area- its near the park, handy for the work and has a nice working class vibe.
House 7 220k
Had no toilet, enough said
not listed anymore
House 8 275k
same as above but with a toilet and finished to a high spec. Only went hear as agent had to let another couple in to see it. It was lovely but had a 1 meter kitchen. Lovely interiors but could have been so much nicer
House 9 195k
2 bed little pebble dashed cottage . The smell of tobbacco smoke was unbeleivably disgusting! yellow sticky, tarry walls and a ramshakle back yard but me off.

House 10 205k
similar to the above but without the smell. Little old lady decor that a quick paint job would fix. It had a nice size kitchen but it was too small for me. I need to rent a room out and at this size youd have no privacy. Youd have to book a night in when the tenant had a night out if you wanted to have some fun :-) either that or not mind that the tenant thinks theyre listening to a porn movie
not listed anymore- similar renovated is on at 199k

My Tips
* Dont believe a word any estate agent or solicitor says. Expect long delays and no one to ring you on time
* visit the area where the house is at different times of the day
* ask the police if you have any niggling doubts about the area
* check the taps work and windows open
* ask if the heating works, just because its there doesnt mean it works
* see if the neighbours have added extensions or converted the attic
* never act too excited , the agent can smell an eager buyer a mile away
* be willing to pay the price to get the house or willing to walk away and leave it
* dont think too much about the price. Its only a guideline and a house is only worth what someone is willing to pay
