Anyone any advice, On 36K with a 10% bonus.In a good multinational company and looking to buy.

I'm with the company 5 years and no higher paid jobs have come up in the five years as no one leaves the company.

I'm looking to buy a house in my area that are going for 200K.

Im over qualified for my role but the thoughts of moving back to Dublin is not what I want to do just to get 55K which o could easily get in order to meet the 3.5 rule.

Thanks

If you like the house and location Buy it ! No matter when you buy the matter is when you sell.If you not gonna sell then no need thinking at all !
The smaller the price on market the bigger is competition
The bigger the price on market the less the competition
Choose,or you now or somebody later.
If you dont care what you buy then simply wait until market will crash.

Sorry to burst the bubble the media has being feeding everyone for the past 6 years but there is little to no 'start-up' culture in Ireland. London and Berlin are the IT start-up cities in Europe and my understanding is that Latvia is the FinTech start-up capital of Europe.

Pre-Covid I used to go to a lot of the Dublin startup-related meetups. Very vibrant scene back in 2014-2016 but last few years a lot of it disappeared due to spiralling costs.

Yep that's exactly it, I'll have to commute up and down to Dublin and maybe get a cheap room on a Wednesday.

It's three hour drive in total every day.

I have 30K saved but max the bank will give me is 130 and that's with the bonus included.

I get 2500 a month and can afford the 750 monthly repayment.

Cgt isn’t supportive if start ups in Ireland. Property prices are irrelevant. Plenty of incubators, office space included in series funding etc.

Your options are
- increase salary
- look at cheaper properties that current income facilitate required borrowing
- wait it out

If you're saving the problem gets smaller with time

The Dublin commute & cheap room thing seems prohibitive to me.

maybe think about going out on your own.

thats 15 hours a week of wasting time.

wait if you can but ideally work for yourself or move to some place they will pay you the same and costs and commute are very small.

At the moment it small beans but bide your time and see how the cards fall in a while

He will easily afford it next year
When property market will collapse
Permanent job,permanent incomes,there will be queue of banks who will want give him mortgage
And there will be queue of sellers who will want get rid of the property before banks will take it for free.
There will be towns of empty property previously used for rent.

No queues of banks. But prices will fall when and at what time is hard to gauge as the gov keep this sh.t show going but they will.

There's going to be a lot of very disappointed people if the government manage to keep the show going until the economy recovers.

I dont think it has anything to do with getting a house for half price but if you look at how things are and where they are heading i wouldn't be running out to buy anything.

Some Banks will be re capitalised but it will not flow downwards at the rate it should.

I think the problem is you are just miserable. It’s not healthy. The conspiracy theories, doom mongery, fantasies etc isn’t good for the head. I would suggest talking to someone about it. It definitely benefitted me in the past. Otherwise you will waste your life waiting for your prophecies to come true.

Old lending system collapsed and does not work the recession started year before Covid.The best way for politicians keep trousers dry is tell everybody this is Covid created propblems not us ! Year by year,step by step Ireland run to the dead end were country are now.Nobody does not say Yes,we created this problem ! Everybody says Covid created this problem ! Because if they will say We Created this problem they will never win elections again ! Everybody wash them hands now.
There is millions problems to solve as debts of EU countries,low incomes,etc

That made me laugh. It has no effect on me either way but i see what i see.Your obviously young and more power to you and have not seen this before. Btw i havent either i lived through bad but this is a sh.it storm coming. We all decide what we choose to at the end of the day but based on the evidence it aint looking at all good.

The problem is when everyone starts to think and act like that, a recession becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Much will hinge on the government interventions outlasting either a vaccine, or getting coronavirus under control.

To your other point, I do think there are more than a handful who do genuinely expect they'll be able to get a house for half price.
