I was lucky to get end of terrace so I have fileds to the side of me, I am on the other side of the road on Martello Terrace if that makes any sence.
I'm not too worried about the water pumps because I do know that Fingal council is a stickler of high quality finish. The developer can get away with it on private properties but if he wants Fingal to pay him, he just has to tackle that problem. I will note it down for the snag list.
hi swordshead, i bought a two bed in erris square aswel, couldn't becide between a balcony and bay window but went for the bay window in the end! I asked the lady from fingal about the valuation and she said that was the price fingal paid the builders for the units and so they can't be changed, she did say though if you were selling and the price was lower then the clawback would be reduced! Does anyone know how much I should expect to pay for a solicitor??
In relation to the deposit - When I went for interview was told average deposit was about 7-10K. Mine is now looking like it will need to be 20K. I know it all depends on how much they have approved you for but is anyone else having this problem.
Hi mlouisa.
I submitted my snag list 3/4 weeks ago, to be honest I really was expecting it to be done before aug, as I have learned that FCC can sometimes be wrong with their time estimates! I got a phone call on mon and was told the apt is ready to be checked. They may not snag the units until all are sold,is there some still available where you bought?Not sure if snags are being completed by original builders or if FCC are paying for someone else to do them.

hi swordshead, i bought a two bed in erris square aswel, couldn't becide between a balcony and bay window but went for the bay window in the end!Hi me too!! Its all going smoothly at the moment..touch wood! My valuation should be in on monday so hoping its not much less than the market price. I dont know what to do or who to complain to if it is much lower, its happening all over the place. I agree that its ridiculous the clawback we have to pay if the property is valued so much less than they say its worth.I am still delighted at the thought of moving in though and havent as yet found any problems, cant praise the process enough(hope i dont regret saying that) Anyway..hoepfully we'll be neighbours soon, PM me if you want to chat about moving in, snags etc
Are you not worried that some apts are overvalued by €55k? .
the lady from fingal told me that theres a provision in law for affordable housing that you cannot lose money on them, so the clawback would be adjusted at the time of sale if the sale price was lower than the market value given by fingal, if this is the case then are we not in a better position than most buyers as we are always guaranteed at least our deposit back? Also from reading other posts it seems to be the case that the banks valuation generally comes in lower? I stand to be corrected on all this!!
