Did anyone see Househunters on RTE last night (Wed June 28th)? Irish girl recently moved back from London goes house shopping in Dublin. Brillant stuff, some quotes, "and then there's stamp duty on top of that!?"... "I havent got any loans at all, not even a credit card [but she's borrowing almost 600k for a house]"...and my favourite, "[on her new mortgage debt] it's like monopoly money"... the hosts mentioned that she made money on her car, by bringing it back from England(!) and should sell it to fund the downpayment. On viewing the first property, a 2-bed apt for €415k, one of the hosts derridingly said that the place needed a good clean-up cos it "had obviously been on the rental market"...perish the thought of those scum renters having shelter....
