    Here's something else that needs to be considered. Big tech companies are steadily starting to either reduce the workforce numbers or move on out of the country. If the jobs ain't here, nobody will be able to buy them, effectively making already expensive houses unsaleable. So the bubble will have to burst, the market will become stagnant unless prices come down.

    • @donfalcon1495
      @donfalcon1495 Před 9 dny

      There is no bubble! Houses are purchased with low levels of debt!
      Also housing isn’t particularly expensive by international standards!
      Only WWIII will bring house pricing down substantially!
      A massive global recession may knock 5% off current prices.
      The only realistic way of bringing prices down is increasing supply substantially! At least a 10 year timeframe to catch up on supply.

    I think that the outlawing of the "bedsit" was a significant factor in aggravating the housing/homeless crisis.
    Our planning system seems unfit for purpose, too slow in operation and does not serve the population. New long awaited planning laws will take years to wash through the system.

      If we let the free market to dictate what type and size of property, then we will not have problem. I never understood why we gave power to faceless civil "servants" to decide what is suitble for us, when they themselves live in big houses!!.
      Most young people are happy with a small dwelling that they have their own space.; is that too much to ask for??
      If they consider the accommodation was not suitable they just move out and allow others who have a lesser demand; people should be able to vote with their wallets?

    • @Finderskeepers.

      Bedsits didn t get outlawed. The minimum standard for a dwelling got improved to cover basic things like no shared toilet and minimum SqM. Infact the most recent act (2015) was to further reduce the minimum size it 45 SqM
      The problem is simply not enough supply, bedsits are a very small part of the market and only in the larger cities. Not enough is being built and this is compounded by increasing demand as a result of increased population and strong economic growth.

    @garysmithinvesting6809 Před 25 dny +4

    Very good analysis. Although we probably need to consider the concept of price elasticity of demand. Basically how the change in price will affect the change in demand. At a certain point, the increase in prices will have a huge drop off in demand. Now, because it's housing and it's a nessesity, this tends to be quite ineleastic, as we've seen so far...but it still needs consideration. It's kind of like, too much money chasing too little supply. But what happens when the money runs out. I also think this oecd tax for companies is a ticking time bomb. If multinationals pull out, it will leave many with mortgages that more "regular" paying jobs may not cover. This could lead to repossessions etc and a repeat of 2008 on a smaller scale.
    Also, I just discovered your channel and videos over the last few days. They are very informative and well though out. And you apply sound logic to everything. Subbed 👍.

      @mike_mcgb You are incorrect. Since the Act in 2000, 20% of all developments of 5 units or more have to be for social and affordable housing resulting in a higher % than there has even been. To keep national debt down, these are now owned by housing associations rather than the council/state meaning the debt stays on associations books unlike a council house.

    Thank you for another interesting and enjoyable video. The free market will always sort shortages, surpluses. Possibly for good reasons. Our government interferes with every part of housing. There could be a crash if for some reason interest rates went back to 19%. If the Euro failed or something unforseen happened. There has always been booms and busts and when one is in either it is hard to see it coming. Inflation also distorts the picture.

    "house prices are a function of supply and demand and until supply increases significantly it's hard to see house prices falling." They would fall if demand for houses reduced. The inconvenient truth about supply and demand is that there are two sides and your data means nothing when you ignore the fact that in Ireland's case right now demand is artificially increased by govt policy on immigration.

    Prices are determined by supply and demand, see economics 101.
    There’s an artificial disruption to the supply of housing.
    It’s called the “an Board Pleanála”
    The asinine laws and rules which restrict and/or prohibit the development of the abundantly available land in Ireland is the biggest factor in the restricting of supply.
    The above coupled with the corrupt government of Ireland having zero problem debasing the culture of the populace by allowing mass immigration contributes to the artificial surge in demand.
    Conclusion, prices of housing in Ireland is artificially high and is likely to see a correction if and when we address the underlying causation, ie. Corruption.
    And anyone who thinks it is reasonable to pay a half million or more for a house in Ballygobackward with no amenities, infrastructure or employment deserves everything that’s coming to them.

    New house prices have reached the peak of 2007, bolstered by government grants which is simply industry subsidisation. Secondhand prices, in the Midlands at least, for a semi-d are not yet on a par with the 2007 madness. i.e. €230k (my pricepoint example) in 2007 is worth €295k in today's purchasing power. Courtesy of the ECB and their controlled, intentional inflaton. What, you didn't know that Central Banks, and central banks alone, create inflation? Come now 😅.
    All that is wrong in our lives is that our wages (price of labour) has not kept up with the price of every other asset. Its very simple. Priced in gold, real money (just ask the CBs), houses are declining. Or priced in euro currency, they're increasing. Leaving aside CGT for now, gold is the clever place for your savings. 22% since last year and it hasn't even got going. Save (store) your house deposit with the likes of goldcore, liquidate it very quickly when needed and close that gap between house price 'inflation' and wage stagnation (examine many recent pay awards versus even CPI and one is losing). Examine against actual inflation, beyond contrived measures, and one is beig defrauded of their labour.

    • @onlytm981
      @onlytm981 Před 25 dny

      It is very, very rare that I find myself in agreement with any comment on the internet. For an honest measure of house prices, they should be priced in real money which is gold and this measure shows real prices declining. Other interesting measures would be a unit of labour costs, food, healthcare or other everyday expenses that people actually need. Ultimately though, the biggest loss in property values will be against gold or perhaps silver. I think, considering that gold is money and thus not an investment, collecting CGT on gold is wrong and immoral but what else should we expect. I find it strange that people think it's prices that are rising when it's actually the € and other fiat currencies that are falling. When a critical mass of people wake up to this fact, there will be a stampede out of fiat currencies (not money) into real assets and real money. Now, will CBs be able to maintain control of inflation and inflation expectations and keep it as a steady loss of purchasing power so as to maintain their illusory lie that fiat currencies are an honest measure of value or even a store of value? I don't think so. Sorry for repeating much of what you said. I was just happy to see some logic that I agreed with.
