Ep 4: Housing Problems and Solutions
After thousands of conversations with people looking to buy a home, I think I have gleaned some valuable information and have a pretty good insight into what the most common problems are. So I decided to try and come up with some solutions! Here are the problems:
Home buying taking too long
People being gazumped
Buyers/Sellers Pulling out
Local authorities buying up existing stock
Build to rent
Fixer-Uppers and lending on them
Investors buying existing or new stock
Self-employed people unfairly treated by banks
Fake bids and lack of transparency
Over 160,000 habitable homes left empty
Dodgy valuation process
Demand side schemes from government
Inaccurate advertisements for homes -
Ep 3: How To Buy a Home Series: Your Mortgage
This is the first episode in a series all about How To Buy a Home in Ireland
I run through everything you need to know about your mortgage plus a few questions at the end:
- If I have AIP, can I take out a small loan to cover costs?
- Can I get a renovation mortgage?
- How do you calculate in advance what your repayments will be?

A Must Listen for Home Buyers
Although the facts are frightening, this first episode gives great background as to why we are where we are in the housing market. Thanks Ciarán - you’re doing great work! 👏🏻
Impressed - would love more!
Just found this podcast and very impressed with it, some real common sense regarding ‘operation transformation’ - wish there were more episodes, hopefully more to come
