    Insights from an Estate Agent with Ben Thompson of Churches Estate Agents

    Insights from an Estate Agent with Ben Thompson of Churches Estate Agents

    As a buyer, you're more than likely going to encounter a few estate agents on your house buying journey. But this is also a part of the journey which throws up a bunch of questions, especially if you are a first-time buyer!

    How do agents get new business with today's lack of supply? Does the sale always go to the highest bidder? How much information should an agent request from you? 

    Our guest in this episode to help us answer these questions and much more is Ben Thompson of Churches Estate Agents. Apart from being Ireland's friendliest estate agent by day, Ben is also the editor of Irish Home Magazine and helped to create and publish the very popular Irish Home Buyers Journal which was launched in 2021.

    He has a wealth of knowledge on the house buying process and we were very grateful to get him on the podcast to pick up some great insights into the world of agents!

    Remember to follow Irish Home Magazine on Instagram and Facebook (both @irishhomemagazine) to find details on the launch of the second edition of The Irish Home Buyers Journal. Or just visit IrishHome.ie for some great advice on buying a home!

    House Buying Journey - Solo Buyer with Rebecca Lee

    Buying a home in Ireland is harder than it's ever been. For first time buyers who are going solo and single applicants for a mortgage, the journey can be even harder! Our guest today, Rebecca recently went through that journey and bought her first home... As a single applicant!

    Rebecca didn't avail of the bank of mum and dad, didn't receive any big inheritance and doesn't have Pat Kenny's salary. So how did she do it?

    That's what this episode is all about. Rebecca brings us through her journey, the sacrifices she made, the hard decisions she took along the way and most importantly, getting her home!

    Rebecca's story first appeared in the Irish Times in March of this year. The positive message and story she had caught my attention straight away so I was delighted and extremely grateful she could join us on the podcast.

    This episode will give a lot of people hope and shares the message that there is light at the end of the tunnel. No matter your situation, you can do it!

    If you'd like to read Rebecca's original story in the Irish Times you can check it out here --> Irish Times Story
