    Hi,

    I am interested in a house in Cork. Currently living in Dublin. Well outside the 5km zone. Realtor has agreed to open the house for me, and leave it completely free/empty if I go to visit.

    Am I legally allowed to travel? I will literally be encountering nobody throughout the trip - so no risk of spreading disease + I assume finding accommodation is protected? Just want to make sure lest I get fined.

    Cheers thank you

    You'll be grand, is there is an option of seeing the house virtually but it is not the same as being there physically I know.

    House viewings are only permitted when sale agreed according to latest release so you might have an issue.

    Having said that, if the house isn't too far off the motorway, chances of meeting a checkpoint are slim enough.

    It depends on if the Garda takes the excuse, or not; https://www.dublinlive.ie/news/dublin-news/cork-kildare-journey-sees-car-19644787
