County KIldare Property
Jan 2010 Average price of a new home: €200,000
Average price of a second-hand home: €190,000
In Kildare new two-bed apartments were the biggest hit last year, dropping
from €150,000 to €120,000. Lack of availability to finance and low consumer
confidence are beimg blamed, and unless confidence picks up, agents say,
it is likely the county will see another poor year. There is hope however,
that now the banks have been bailed out, liquidity will return to the
market. Investor interest is at an all time low, with owner occupiers
making up 100% of the sales last year. There is no sign of this trend
changing as rents continue to fall at a slow pace. The good news is that
the change in stamp duty has given rise to an increase in buyers’ interest,
particularly on second-hand properties. Buyers stand to make savings.
County Kildare:
Most Kildare towns are within a fairly short drive of Dublin - and
the house prices are usually less expensive than Dublin. As
an inland county, Kildare's landscape shares many of its features with
its neighbours, but it has the advantage of the Wicklow mountain range
to the east, with the foothills spreading westwards to meet the Curragh
of Kildare. It extends into the undulating central lowlands, beneath which
the layers of carboniferous limestone, sand and gravel provide good drainage.
The great raised Bog of Allen on the western side of the county, with
its covering of black peat and mantle of heather and gorse, is a dramatic
contrast to the well-tilled fields of south Kildare, or to the bright
green paddocks and the wooded estates of the livestock and stud farms
scattered throughout the county.
