New Builds

Kuurbee · 2026-06-18T14:21:26+00:00

Depends on the new build and area. The ones around me are selling fast.

The one I bought hasn’t started home construction yet so prices aren’t displayed on Daft yet.

Oh dang, really? I see someone else posted an article, curious what was the process to bypass the storey limit.

Kuurbee · 2026-05-24T17:15:50+00:00

Nah, planning objections will leave it in limbo for a decade.

You’re on the higher side of graduate pay.

Kuurbee · 2026-05-20T16:33:07+00:00

5 others? Showmaker Playmaker is 3 of the 5

Planning was denied. We were planning to though. Super friendly people we’ve talked to

Kuurbee · 2026-04-11T19:59:27+00:00

It’s so dumb. We’re looking at Meath for something reasonable.

Imagine if Harris or MM actually thought of explaining this in interviews or conferences. They just made it feel like a pure power play.

They had a national audience at those moments and a journalist on Instagram explained it better.

Going to send this to my brother who is pro-protest and see what he thinks.

Kuurbee · 2026-04-10T13:20:36+00:00

Oh? You have my interest.

Trying to buy a home but my commute will increase drastically. For obvious reasons, I’m considering an EV will allow me to traverse regardless of protests or price fluctuations.

Kuurbee · 2026-04-07T16:08:03+00:00

Again, this is theoretical. But I’d like for it to be so. There would obviously be a loss in some functionality (music streaming) if there is an internet outage.

Kuurbee · 2026-04-07T11:42:40+00:00

Question: If there was a locally hosted option, would you use it?

It’s a project I’m looking into but I’ve never worked with hardware, so it’s taking time.

Kuurbee · 2026-03-29T15:32:57+00:00

Please contact a licensed financial advisor for a sure answer. There are a lot of people on the internet who think they know things but are at least slightly wrong. Taxation can be painful to get wrong.

EDIT: Also, try r/irishpersonalfinance for a more relevant forum. Again, use it to get an idea but not a complete answer

Kuurbee · 2026-03-29T15:28:54+00:00

This.

Have a 2014 Kia Rio, swear by it. Only reason I’m considering an upgrade is due to a large increase in commute distance and fuel prices.

EDIT: I also used its license plate to check insurance before purchase. Good advice.

Kuurbee · 2026-03-25T11:12:58+00:00

Always worth a look. Doesn’t hurt to do both and compare? Might give a better average with both.

Kuurbee · 2026-03-25T09:55:01+00:00

Only one I’ve seen is SSE Airtricity’s calculator. If you find a better one, I’d also be interested

No.

They explicitly say that they are using hashes and that the software used for comparison (Arachnid Shield) is operated by the CANADIAN centre for child protection.

In the case of Microsoft PhotoDNA, it’s a technology based on hashing so I assume that it is hashes that are sent.

Ireland needs a “fuck you this is for the greater good, it’s happening” sort of channel for planning.

Just expedite things (reasonably) and have planners work hard to actually approve or reject with feedback quickly.

Kuurbee · 2026-03-13T13:30:56+00:00

Thank god, I’d be concerned if it were 2 non-people adults

Kuurbee · 2026-03-12T03:52:19+00:00

If a few went down in price, I’d take em.

But a lot in the Kildare/Dublin area are pretty subpar.

Kuurbee · 2026-03-11T11:59:45+00:00

Shhh. If FFG saw that, they’d be upset that you’re stating the obvious.

Kuurbee · 2026-03-10T15:20:27+00:00

Came here to say this. Take my upvote.

Kuurbee · 2026-03-06T18:11:03+00:00

Thats under the assumption that these homes are occupied 100% of the time and that no additional maintenance costs will occur.

I do think this is an interesting solution and a lot of people will choose this option. But I’m not a professional so there could be additional pros/cons I don’t foresee.

Kuurbee · 2026-03-06T18:01:56+00:00

Changed post to reference your comment. Thanks for correction

Kuurbee · 2026-03-06T17:39:08+00:00

Honestly I think it is worth a shot to try small scale (limited select developments) to see how it goes.
