€45,000 price 'a steal'

    WITH a price tag of just €45,000 it is one of the cheapest houses in the country.

    But while it may appear at first glance to be a steal, the Limerick house just on the market has one major drawback: Wayne Dundon -- one of the country's most feared criminals -- lives next door.

    While the country's property market may have collapsed, no buyer has been willing or brave enough to purchase the small home on Lenihan Avenue, Prospect, Limerick.

    I laughed when I read this in the paper earlier. €45 grand is about 35 more than that house is worth right now. To me anyway.

    Way overpriced! :p

    In 2005, there were houses on sale in St Marys Park for 25k.

    The Gardai should buy it and use it as a Garda Station, great location, great price and should be in with the action. Costs less than one of those fancy Volvo ERU cars.

    THERES always cheap houses going in certain estates in limerick, but would you want to live there.i doubt if the locals would welcome a lot of outsiders coming in to buy cheap houses.You can buy a house in detroit for 20k, because jobs are scarce ,industry is leaving the city .Most people live in area x because its close to work and family/friends. You could buy an old house in the country for a reasonable price in a safe area, or look at apartments,
    there were apartments going for 50k in mullingar 3 months ago.
