Kids buying Gaffs
« on: February 01, 2021, 07:54:26 am »
If any of you have Kids thinking of buying a Gaff be very careful .Big Dommos Grandaughter was going to buy an apartment went to have a look at it Saturday on the way out a fella stopped her and Advised she stay clear of it .He said he is an Architect and that the Government are sitting on a report into Cladding and Fireproofing of Apartment blocks and Houses and the building materials used .He recons almost NO new build after 1990 being new build apartments and only about half the houses meet the new fire regulations .He recons government are ignoring the report as it would crash the property market if they acted on it .He says the Government might shift the responsibility on to the Homeowner by changing the Rules .He recons just like you need a BERA cert or whatever they call it to show how insulated your gaff is if you want to sell it that Banks might require a Fire Safety Cert before they will pony up money for a Mortgage or the government will allow you sell.


This is some Banana .Government say you need a Covid test to get on a Plane or a Ferry but you can buy a firetrap make the biggest investment of your life and they dont give a fuck .The appartment Dommos Grandaughter was looking at is on Cork Street .

Theres an Opportunity for kids to study to qualify to issue those certs if they ever become Law .Our kid Studied Auctioneering and Valuation when they brought in Property tax thinking you would need a Professional Valuation but the government decided you could self assess .

Typical Irish Government only Priory Hall built by a Shinner and the Block in the Google Ghetto owned by Judges and x presidents are hilited for different reasons but the Gaffs with Pigeon Lofts or kids Prams stored under the stairs in the Hall/Lobby nobody gives either of their Fucks about them .To be fair to the Brits they dont mind telling the truth as long as the question isint about Princes fucking Kids or Soldiers shooting Catholics .If Brit Appartments are Firetraps you can be sure the Irish ones are as well probably the Same builders and Architects .

Could be a precursor to making homeowners upgrade properties to comply with current building regulations periodically. Obviously standards change over time so that'd be a huge money spinner for tradesmen.
If it doesn't have a roof sign and door stickers it's not a taxi.
