Buying Property and Selling property in Ireland:

Your chance to grab a bargain Property in Ireland

These days thousands of people are relocating to different countries or different regions within the same country, for reasons of work, business, finance, retirement and sometimes for a better life for their family. and a number of other reasons.  There are also a number of ex-pats moving around the world at any given time.  Our Property auctions in Ireland play a significant part in bolstering the number of property sales in Ireland.

If you're driving, Ireland can be your oyster. It's a matter of deciding which area to explore. Classic routes incorporate the Ring of Kerry, at the Iveragh Peninsula, and also the Beara Peninsula, both west coast.  The wild Burren provides a spectacular landscape.  In County Antrim, the Coastal Causeway route from the Giant's Causeway, to Ballycastle is an amazing mix of sea cliffs, contrasting black basalt with white chalk, picturesque harbours and broad stretches of sandy beaches. Hikers and anglers can explore the lake regions from Lough Erne to Lough Sheelin. You could even do the Giant circle, starting and finishing in Dublin. Whatever you do, don't rush it.  Ireland has an extensive network of roads, and a small but developing network of motorways.  Be prepared for difficult driving conditions on the smaller rural roads: you will need a good road map and a great sense of humour to deal with the potholes and signposts, or lack of.  The positive is that asking directions invariably results in striking up a conversation with jokes and all.

 

Buying Property in Ireland,

Whether buying at auction or any other method, can be very straight forward, but for the non natives there are details you should make yourself aware of.   We suggest that you make no attempt at buying property in Ireland without getting a solicitor.

When buying through this auction, you must use a solicitor, preferably one who will also set up your utility contracts as well, i.e. electricity, water etc.  Your solicitor will also advise on Bank accounts and all other documentation which is necessary when buying property in Ireland, whether buying through property auctions in Ireland  or Estate agents in Ireland.

Selling Property in Ireland.

When selling property in Ireland, through this auction, all property owners must also use a solicitor, and must provide details of their solicitor to all bidders.  This is to ensure that the timescale targets have the optimum chance of being achieved.

As an international on-line property auction, we cover the entire of the Ireland property market, allowing those buying property in Ireland, and those selling property in Ireland to trade without the commissions generally charged by estate agents in Ireland, and maximising your opportunities of selling property and buying property on the internet. Buying at auction is a great way to make equity from the beginning of your purchase. We also cover many other countries including the UK, Spain, Ireland, Bulgaria and Turkey, allowing us to capitalise on the ex-pats moving back and forth.  We will be adding more countries very soon.
Below are a number of points buyers should consider when buying property in Ireland, whether via estate agents in Ireland or buying at auction.

Finding property in Ireland.

When buying property in Ireland, you can look in estate agents windows, read local papers or you have the internet which is also an excellent research tool for finding property for sale in Ireland, especially if you are buying at auction.  It is thanks to the internet that we can cover every Turkish region with our auctions in Ireland.

The internet is further reaching than local estate agents in Ireland, and whilst your local estate agents will have a website, all their marketing is for their shop, not the website, therefore their websites are only ever found by people who know the address of that agent’s website.  For this reason, vendors are well advised to proceed with selling property in Ireland via both estate agents in Ireland, and the internet if they are to optimise their chances not only of selling property, but of selling property at the best price...
By selling property in our on-line property auctions in Ireland, you will receive a range of bids which hopefully will be acceptable to you, but if not, it is always possible to negotiate a little from both buyer and seller to achieve a deal that everybody is happy with.

Viewing properties

Here are some useful tips to keep in mind when buying Property in Ireland:

  • View the property for sale in Ireland as soon as possible. Leave it too long and you could miss out. Prepare a viewing checklist and take it to the viewing. Ask to see the deeds.
  • When 2 of you are buying together, decide who will be the main viewer, and filter out all but the strongest properties.
  • Don't be afraid to make several visits with tradesmen to find out what cost you could be in for.  Remember if you are buying property in our on-line property auction you will need to get this done in time to bid before the auction close date.
  • Check the history of any tatty, and therefore cheaper property for sale. If it's been rented it may have had several landlords, all of whom may have done the bare minimum in repair and maintenance.
  • If you're tempted to buy a property to refurbish and sell on, check how long it's been on the market. If it's been for sale a long time, it suggests there isn't much profit to be made.

Making an offer:

If you really want to strike a great deal, you would always be better off checking this website, www.propertyforsalebyauction.com as it is the expectation and your offers will be taken far more seriously.  The auction is not only for buying property in Ireland, but also in the UK and many other countries.

If you’re not buying from our on-line property auction, it's still human nature to try to strike a deal when buying property, but if you find your ideal property for sale, and it seems to be priced correctly, consider offering the full asking price or something close. This suggests you will be taken seriously, there’ll be no time-wasting and it will minimise the possibility of someone else buying property, or gazumping you.  Unfortunately, even in difficult markets gazumping can still happen when buying property in Ireland.

Buyer Chains

With our on-line property auctions in Ireland, there are no chains, so if you want a quick easy purchase of your chosen property for sale, where you can make your bid and win a bargain, try this property auction first to avoid the hassle of chains.

Many property chains collapse. This can happen for several reasons, from one party not having finances in order, to negative survey results, not necessarily on the property for sale you are buying, but on one further down the chain.  This is also frustrating for estate agents in Ireland, as they put in the same amount of work in a property for sale which collapses as they do with one which completes. Even estate agents utilise auctions in Ireland sometimes.
