Hi All, any tips on pushing the net out to include Dublin buyers for sale of house in countryside (midlands). I’ve advertised a property there and the demand isn’t great, would guess lots of country people in Dublin may be interested, even commuters but they just don’t know about it. I’m currently using local agent and it’s advertised on daft (general ad) and he tells me only locals will see as they search that specific location. He thinks newspaper ad in Dublin is waste of time. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
Séamus
 
The Dubs will want it cheap because they have to commute :)

Don't know if what he says is correct but he is the expert. People are so desperate to get something affordable that I would have thought that they are searching everywhere especially those who are strapped for cash. Looking at that programme Cheap Irish Homes would lead one to believe that this is the case. Saw one guy on it recently who lived in Cork but was looking as far away as Mayo to get something in his price range.

Is it near to transport to Dublin? Working from home helps with that aspect.

How long has it been on Daft and how many viewings to-date??
 
Thanks for coming back. I was thinking more of people from countryside living in Dublin who may be ok to commute 2-3 days per week. It’s only been on daft a week, few hundred clicks, but he has shown it to a few locals offline. ~ 1 hr 20 to Dublin, it’s near a motorway. Any opinion on advertising in Dublin papers?
