Sunday Property Round-Up August 14th, 2022

Weekly Irish property market news and insights – for the industry, by the industry  

 

 

Before we get stuck into the general property news of the week, below are the local and international stories that might be of particular interest: 

 

  • Property District has teamed up with Hear Me Roar Media and award-winning TikTok agency Nonsensical to deliver groundbreaking campaigns for Ireland-based construction and real estate companies. Contact amey@propertydistrict.ie

As always, you might let me know if I have missed out on any relevant property news by emailing  carol@propertydistrict.ie.

(Apologies in advance for any typos, it’s difficult to get good help on a Sunday. Also, I use voice to text dictation so just sound out anything that really doesn’t make sense in a strong rural accent and that should help!)
