'Homes for €600k not affordable', concedes housing minister

Fears have been raised that homes at the Poolbeg Strategic Development Zones in Dublin could reach such prices

Housing Minister Darragh O'Brien said: "I want affordable homes. €600,000 is not affordable and I think anyone would understand that €600,000 is not affordable."

Housing Minister, Darragh O'Brien, has said that any home for sale for €600,000 is "not affordable".

Fears have been raised that homes at the Poolbeg Strategic Development Zones (SDZ) in Dublin could see prices that high with no deal yet signed with the consortium that is building the "Pembroke Quarter".
