Sunday Property Round-Up, February 18th 2018

 

Below is a weekly catch-up on the property stories that caught my attention.  As always, please do let me know if I have missed out on any interesting property news by emailing  carol@caroltallon.com.

In terms of the broadsheets, The Sunday Business Post is the one to pick up today for the most comprehensive housing market coverage.  .

 

Sunday Read

 

Your Sunday Read today is more of a ‘Sunday sit-back and watch’:

VIDEO: Dublin area dubbed ‘the most connected district in the world’ – Independent.ie
Convened by the Technology and Entrepreneurship Center at Harvard, the Smart City Innovation Accelerator gathered one of the largest groups of city CTOs in Dublin’s Smart Docklands District today.

Trending Property Stories

 

 

 

 

 

  • Finally, if you haven’t read enough of this topic, page 5 of the business section of the Sunday Independent today there is an excellent piece entitled ‘ Developing Dublin: Is the capital city getting what it deserves?’

 

Other property news

 

Any other week this would be the main story, however,  a week is a long time in politics – especially when those politicians get involved in housing: The Daft.ie rental report for Q4 2017 issued earlier this week there was very little good news for Dublin tenants.  You can link to the highlights here and to a discussion I had with Ciara Kelly on her Lunchtime show on  Newstalk: http://caroltallon.com/newstalkfm-dublins-rental-crisis/ 

 

 

 

  • The Sunday Business Post has a front feature story in the business section about Harland and Wolff that is well worth a read.
