Sunday Property Round-Up July 4th, 2021

 

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: 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  • AIB offers €20m to Belfry property investors: Hopes are rising that settlement can be reached in High Court action by 300 investors who lost millions in the Celtic Tiger-era property scheme https://www.businesspost.ie/investing/aib-offers-eur20m-to-belfry-property-investors-22e9bb79?auth=login

 

 

If you missed last week’s round-up, you can catch up here: https://propertydistrict.ie/category/sunday-property-review/ 

 

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!)
