Threw in the towel today and won't be buying under AH scheme after finally losing my patience. Been waiting since December when I first received offer (see post above). Are all councils this incompetent in dealing with their "customers"? As with other posts here the level of procrastination and sheer amount of excuses given as to why things don't progress is incredible.
In a falling market I simply couldn't recommend AH to anybody as a way to buy a house.
Dont stress girl 28, I was offered one of those, they were v.expensive. I dont think it was any kind of deal. Im gutted too, but im saving and keeping all options open. DCC are dreaming with their prices.i was offered a 1 bed apartment in clongriffin, then when i googled it i read all the hold ups re dart station, "the park", "anti social behaviour"
so i think its best to turn it down. however i feel gutted cos i want an apartment NOW. why i could not be offered herberton, or kilmanham square or hsq?? please
the developer is having difficulty selling the exisiting apartments as DCC told me last week that if I pursue Belmayne then I'd be buying directly from him.
Does this mean that if you buy in Belmayne you are buying the apartment outright and not through the AH scheme ??

Hi Teknon,
To be honest I don't know...I was caught on the hop when she said it so it only dawned on me after I got off the phone. That's what it would seem like to me....but I can't imagine I'm getting an apt in Belmayne outright for the AH price-tag. Blue in the face ringing them to comfirm a fax was sent last week so I'm gonna ring them tomorrow to get some confirmation as to what this really means..I'll keep ya posted on any feedback

FTB,
If you want a place in Belmayne, I would contact Hooke and McDonald (Telephone: 01 6318402) and tell them you are interested. Inform them you have approval for mortgage and are ready to buy. Tell them the most you can go to is €250,000 and if they are not interested its no skin off your nose. It is a buyers market out there and that is not changing over the next couple of years. There is over supply of apartments and they would be foolish to not consider your offer (personally speaking I think €250k is too much but if u are willing to pay ah price of that)

Hey Clown,
Ya don't work for H and McD do ya??
I reckon I'd be laughed off the phone....are they really that desperate to get rid of them...the 2 beds are going for "from 315" preumably for a ground floor....but I've seen 2 bed 1st floor for 330 and 340 which IMO is totally over-priced....dont think I've seen a 2 bed going for 250k in about ten years!!! ..well actually I have but not in Dublin or within an 2 hour commute of Dublin. I suppose it might be worth a shot.....
