    i know the true value of my humble abode here dudley because ihelped build it with my barehands !

    but what I dont , and know is what itll be worth next year , or the year after that ect ect . not many home owners do because without a crystal ball its close to impossible .

    besides , thats not the only thing you got wrong ,

    The market can be inflated, that makes no difference. If the person is sitting in a house and reckons it is worth 250k but the market says it is 500k they can pay the LPT for 250k. If they go to sell and get 500k then they have to top up the difference on all the property tax. But if they hold out and the market reduces and they sell at 250k then no issue.

    its not a case of just under declaring the price of a house , and settling out of your estate .

    the article up above said revenue could contact you if they suspect you to have under declared value , and unless you can support why you have placed the value you did , it could be reassessed , and you would be taxed at the new value they place on it !

    you make it sound like having a bet at a casino , i have had numerous dealings with revenue before I left Ireland , but i can say one thing , the irish revenue is a finely run system , i would bet my last penny that they collect taxes on current property price valuation , a person's house dropping in value by the time of their death wont mean jack to them , youll still owe your dues dudley , you had better believe that !

    The market is rigged. FF/FG are part of that.

    The owner can't pull a value out of their hole. Its based on market value.

    You are confused. You are saying the owner sets it but it has to be realistic.

    Do you not see you are twisting in the wind here?



  • Registered Users Posts: 163 ✭✭BackOfMyBag


    yes exactly , it isnt " self valuation " in a true sense of the word , its more apt to be describing it as " self declaring the market valuation "

    otherwise , you would have all kinds of blaggards claiming there houses were worth a tenth of the market value .

    the self valuation thing along with the hundred pound registration payment was nothing more than a mixture of a lazy arsed way of introducing the tax , and a bribe to get you to put your name in the ring



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,760 ✭✭✭dudley72


    Also I don't like the idea of property value being set by the gouging friends of FF/FG in the property business

    The new valuation which will apply from 2022 -2025 needs to be submitted before 1st Nov.

    In terms of the statement "you would have all kinds of blaggards claiming there houses were worth a tenth of the market value ", no you won't. Let say you live in Dublin and every house in the area is 500k and you value you's at 250k. The revenue will spot.

    I gave an unrealistic example to try and make it clear to someone who clearly had no idea about LPT.

    The reason they asked for Self valuation was to reduce cost and to implement quickly. The alternative was hiring loads of people to value every house in Ireland. Now they have an online tool to help people if they are unsure.



  • Registered Users Posts: 163 ✭✭BackOfMyBag


    dudley you dont even realise that youre arguing against yourself now , you said earlier it was self evaluation , and if you under declared you just topped up the difference after the sale of a house !

    If the person is sitting in a house and reckons it is worth 250k but the market says it is 500k they can pay the LPT for 250k. If they go to sell and get 500k then they have to top up the difference on all the property tax. But if they hold out and the market reduces and they sell at 250k then no issue.


    but now youve changed position to actually agree with what i was saying about revenue pulling people who purposely undervalued the current valuation , as the tax due on it is the preset value at current rates .

    here you are

    Let say you live in Dublin and every house in the area is 500k and you value you's at 250k. The revenue will spot.

    here i am saying what you are now saying too

    the article up above said revenue could contact you if they suspect you to have under declared value , and unless you can support why you have placed the value you did , it could be reassessed , and you would be taxed at the new value they place on it !

    thats not self valuation by any stretch of your imagination

    Will leave you to it, it’s clear neither of you have a clue on LPT and trying to explain here is pointless.

    I suggest you ring them if you ever need to, best of luck



  • Registered Users Posts: 163 ✭✭BackOfMyBag


    im surely not the only one that notices when dudleys hollow arguments get laid bare in plain sight he likes to " leave people to it "

    you actually did try and bluff folk into believing you could just put down any valuation plucked from nowhere and either offset it , or pray your home sold for less than the current market value .

    few seconds later you tried to use my own explanation of how you were absolutely wrong against me , you really do not have a clue what you are spouting on about , but you are posting your opinion as gospel , and that is in fact a very dangerous thing to do , if you dont have a clue about how something works , youre better to keep quiet on the subject as you then stop yourself looking foolish and hopefully some poor eegit wont see your incorrect posts and get into bother by taking it as advice !

    On another thread Dudley was saying MNC's would leave if the tax rate was increased. When asked where they would move to he never answered.



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,760 ✭✭✭dudley72


    I responded, you ignored it. Seemed fairly pointless responding after that would you not agree?

    I done none of what you are accusing me of. But you are aware of that.

    The poster hadn’t a clue what LPT was, I tried to give some information to help explain.



  • Registered Users Posts: 4,914 ✭✭✭skimpydoo


    You never answered the question. You have a habit of not answering what you were asked or going of on a tangent when you know you are screwed.

    Taxing property is one of the oldest and prominent left-wing ideals and has been thus for the past 200 years..... yet we have left-wingers in Ireland in the form of SF saying, No, we should not tax property....

    Irish exceptionalism at its finest.


    "We want very good world-class public services...... but I want someone else to pay for it all..."



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,760 ✭✭✭dudley72


    As we can see from this thread, the SF supporters complaining don’t even pay the LPT.



  • Registered Users Posts: 163 ✭✭BackOfMyBag


    how have you reached that conclusion can I ask ? its a brave comment to throw out their considering you had to be educated on the ins and outs of purposely under valuing the gaff thinking you could patiently wait and hope it sold for less than market value lol !

    tell you what , import a car into Ireland , try dodging the VRT on it on the price you bought it for ( current market value ) and offer to pay revenue the vat calculated on the value you sold it at ten years later and let us know what revenue say



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,068 ✭✭✭Murph85


    Someone on 100k is on 60k gross I think... if that is in dublin, it's a modest income



  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    If in doubt, contact any auctioneer and get them to give you a valuation. The cheeky way is to say that you’re think of selling. Then they won’t charge very much.



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,068 ✭✭✭Murph85


    These are the real rich here. New free luxury apartments, Guaranteed income. Do a few nixers here and there. No stress or worry. That's for the fools paying for the BS!

    I'd implement a proper LPT or scrap it altogether... start charging proper rents on social housing and deduct at source if needs be...

    Increase motor tax substantially on new cars... certainly on petrol, diesel and probably hybrids...



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,760 ✭✭✭dudley72


    100% right. Based on the calculator I provided 64k after tax without any pensions etc.



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,760 ✭✭✭dudley72


    If they could get social housing to pay rent, never mind paying LPT.

    governments of ff and fg are to blame for that one , they are the ones that have been legislating for the last 100 years , attachment orders like they were going to do with water and lpt for actual homeowners , but their was no appetite to do that by the look of things !



  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    SF are populists not left wingers

    Their only connection with socialism comes from Belfasts friendship with the former soviet union, that's dying out

    The cult of Populism is a phase any growing party must navigate

    Reality eventually bites

    It did for 'new labour' Syrizza, it will for Macron and it will for SF

    FG has had several dalliance's with populism, its most effective in a crisis was 2011

    The civil service sprays round up on it as quickly as it hits office



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,760 ✭✭✭dudley72


    Back to "something something FF/FG something something".

    SF ran DCC for years, all during that time did they manage to resolve the issue?

    Have SF any plans to tackle the issue at all because I have never once heard them mention it.



  • Registered Users Posts: 163 ✭✭BackOfMyBag


    you mentioned getting social housing tenants to pay rent , the harsh reality is that the failure to have these measures in place falls on legislators , dcc are not legislators , and it doesnt matter one dam who has majority seats on that council !

    lookit , you came out with rubbish without thinking it thru , its like the nonsense you came out with yesterday about self valuing a gaff for half its worth , you cannot reasonably do that without expecting to be contacted by revenue , or your other nonsense about ministers going up north !



  • Registered Users Posts: 218 ✭✭CDarby


    Can I ask, was FG underEnda Kenny part of the "loony left" when he was firmly against the idea of taxing "the family home"

    Enda Kenny

    it is “morally unjust and unfair” to tax a person’s home and he likened such a charge to a “vampire tax in that it drives a stake through the heart of home ownership . . . and sucks the life blood of people who want to own their own home and better their position”.


    Or when he then later went on to introduce it when in govt?

    It would seem you think it's a left wing ideology both to introduce it, and to oppose it markodaly, so by that, we must surely conclude that you view FG, whilst under Enda Kenny as a bit of "a left wing" party yeah?



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,760 ✭✭✭dudley72


    In 2019 when SF lost the majority in DCC the debt was built up to 33m. They had no issue collecting from some people but didn't with others. They managed from 2014 to evict 1 tenant. If they can collect and evict the legislation is in place.

    The only other option is to take at source, have SF said they are willing to implement?

    In regards to LPT. I made my point crystal clear, if you don't understand I suggest you go to the website or ring the LPT . Sorry I can't help anymore.




  • Registered Users Posts: 995 ✭✭✭iColdFusion


    Eoin O Broin on Reboot Republic saying he wants to give renters a tax rebate equivalent to 1 months rent (so the tax payer would be subsidising landlords) but SF also say they want to remove help to buy as its driving up prices 🙄

    I don't understand how someone with very good housing knowledge is also a member of a party promising to magic up 20,000 new homes next year when he clearly knows its impossible as he had a few digs at the LDA for their delayed housing projects and says councils arnt up to the job.

    Even outside of Dublin it's a strong income but it's far from being "rich". These people still have to budget month to month, they still have to save up for nice things. They aren't going to be worrying about food on the table each week, but they aren't living life on a whim either. They'll still be working their 40 hour weeks.

    They are not earning enough that a tax increase, and drop in take home, is not going to be noticed in real terms.

    The real "rich" earn significantly more than 100k, but hitting the middle classes is easier because they do not have the means to reduce their taxable income.



  • Registered Users Posts: 995 ✭✭✭iColdFusion


    If anything Ireland needs to increase the 40% income tax bracket to 50k as the various parties were promising at the last election to give hard working people a break, would be easier for a lot of people to save a deposit, buy their own home or pay rent if they did but this is conveniently ignored in the government math, they prefer to take your money and then act like giving it back to you in help to buy or an affordable home is a gift from the gods, instead they take money from middle income families with good jobs who cant afford a home and give it to people who never in their widest dreams could have afforded a new house and call this fairness.

    FG introduced a Property Tax and we both know this is not a thread about FG or Enda Kenny, it is a thread about SF, so lets keep it on topic, shall we?
