Sites down to just €130,000

WITH self-build a talking point at the moment, going for the site option is good value in conditions of low construction demand and exceptionally low interest rates.

Right now, a selection of sites at Shournagh Valley, Firmount, in Co Cork, has been sharply reduced to sell.

On the market at €130,000, down from €200,000 for a 0.33-acre site, the strategy is working for Sarah O’Keeffe, of Fleming Auctioneers, who has immediately sold three in a serviced scheme at Firmount, Donoughmore, Co Cork.
