Residential property sales totalling €2.73m in a ghost estate were snapped up in just 10 days.

A grandfather forced to “break into” his own home in a ghost estate yesterday issued a “hands-off” ultimatum to AIB and accountants KPMG.

Michelle Burke told a crowd of 80 supporters yesterday that she hopes a meeting with Clare County Council will allow her and husband William Buck, and two other householders, move into their homes.

A COUPLE have warned that their home in an abandoned estate in Clare will become derelict unless AIB agrees to provide services to the property.
