    Asking prices

    Precisely. Cherry picking a few places off daft who've dropped their asking prices doesn't mean selling prices are dropping in the area overall.

    Go on the PPR and type in an estate or road in the area and compare selling prices of houses recently vs 1 year or 2 years ago. They aren't going down. Again as I buyer I have been hoping they would but this isn't the reality. In the next year or two maybe they will. Who knows?

    40% deposit required for the 1.95% at Avant, didn't see that mentioned in the IT article
    I heard when some big people was talking that size of deposit for mortgage is actually how much bank think property price will fall/overpriced.

    Same was during the last recession.
    This recession gonna be worse
    Why mortgage rates are smaller and new lenders coming to country ?
    Because no people left who can afford take mortgage
    If nobody can afford the mortgage
    The property price will DOWN !
    Until people will start afford take mortgage !
    There will be no inflation because nobody has the money
    The all printed money go to lending but how can people take them if they has no job ?

    Not sure if you are honestly delusional, or these past few months have been a consistent troll.

    Unfortunately until a minister grows a pair and puts a tax on the vultures their artificially inflated rents and property prices will stay, heard of one fund informing employees they are extending their stay here by 48 months from next year , WHY because they are creaming it on the backs of renters....

    I think it’s you trolling with comments about not paying taxes and how good the last recession was for you. You see, to be taking satisfaction that there will be a recession, people will lose their jobs and taxes will increase. Stay classy.

    The government have to be very careful with the budget. They need to cut spending (the Black hole of health and social welfare as a priority), rather than imposing/increasing taxes. Especially if they want continued public buy in with the slow easing of restrictions (even looking at Level 1 of the new plan, it isn't a full reopening), to financially punish them for this could end up with a severe backlash.

    The Dept of Finance cheif economist's report as discussed in the IT article mentioned increasing stamp duty for house purchases over €1m as one potential money grabber I saw.

    I would have expected most of them to be here for the long-haul anyway.

    Also from the same article:
    With the reopening of the economy under way, the focus of budgetary and fiscal policy is shifting towards supporting economic recovery and will therefore pivot away from the damage limitation phase to an economic stimulus phase

    The current recession is already in the recovery phase.

    Plenty of people can afford to borrow and buy houses.

    Some people can't manage to pay inflated urban rents and save for a deposit, yes.

    The housing market may soften due to uncertainty, yes.

    Increased stamp duty for houses e1 mill and over as a money grabber! The extra revenue raised should keep the lights on for about 10 minutes!!
    As the third most indebted developed country in the world our borrowing rates could jump in the blink of an eye. I don't see the government having the bottle to do anything with spending. Interesting times ahead.

    We don't know yet, but it looks like GDP will be up in Q3.

    It could well be a 6-month recession, followed by a recovery.

    We are in the recovery period now.

    Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown homeowners face 15% hike in property tax due to Covid crisis.

    “In effectively increasing the local property taxes in Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown, councillors have ensured that those whose homes are worth between €400,000 and €450,000 will see bills increase from €650 per year to €765.”

    According to MyHome
    In the last 3 months Greystones has seen
    11 price increases
    36 price decreases
    Overall decrease of 4%
    Wicklow has seen
    46 price increases
    146 price decreases
    Overall decrease of 3%
    They are the figures in isolation
    How those prices compare to last years prices or to prices in certain more desirable areas I have no idea

    We do know when the recession started.

    That data is published.

    https://www.cso.ie/en/releasesandpublications/er/na/quarterlynationalaccountsquarter22020/

    https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/documents/2995521/10545471/2-08092020-AP-EN.pdf/43764613-3547-2e40-7a24-d20c30a20f64


    We know that GDP fell very sharply in Q1 and Q2, especially Q2.

    We know that from March onwards there were really sharp falls in output/income/expenditure.

    That was the recession.

    Now, as output/income/expenditure is rising, is by definition not a recession.

    We are in the recovery period now.

    It will take a while for GDP to recover to 2019 levels.

    There will be re-allocations of capital and employment, as some sectors thrive, and other sectors decline.

    Yes asking prices dropped
    They obviously dropped because no one was interested at the original asking price
