- Ciara Doherty is joined by Architect Hugh Wallace, Steven Matthews TD, Senator Rebecca Moynihan and Senior Business Reporter Killian Woods to react to the thousands of vacant homes in Ireland during a housing crisis and the introduction of a vacant property tax.
The Minister for Housing Darragh O'Brien has said that the government plans to introduce a vacant property tax in Budget 2023.
The number of vacant homes in Ireland is not yet confirmed, Steven Matthews TD lists the ways you can report vacant homes and the schemes involved. He explains if you cannot measure something, you cannot manage it.
Hugh believes that there should be no VAT for first-time buyers or for people doing construction.
Killian tells Ciara how viewers can apply for derelict property levies to refurbish their vacant homes to live in or to put onto the property market.

The people in real estate that set the price so high are to blame.
I'm in Cashel. I walked 300m to Aldi. 6 vacant houses. None over a shop just vacant . I have reported them all. 4 of them have been sitting there since the boom. It's disgusting.
It is private property and not everybody wants to sell. It is a very poor excuse for not building houses.
@@bighands69 These houses are in the town centre and have been vacant since the boom. All owned by the same person. It's nothing but greed. I own my home outright but anyone that has a social conscience and cares about the next generation will want this carry on to stop.
Such is F.G/F.F's attitude towards housing sadly.
NAMA the greatest injustice ever perpetrated on the Irish people. Overpaid Numpties at the helm.
David ive a car here I don't use at the moment,I suppose you want that also
Who is to blame? Look no further than two men by the names of Leo Varadkar and Michéal Martin, they treat their citizens as invisible then drain away public money to boost their over-inflated wages, the only thing that motivates both of them and their parties is greed, and Ireland's poor people have been affected terribly by the coalition's greed.
Do you want to give the government the power totake over private property .? Is that not dangerous
Sustainability alright.......... of the mass immigration program!
I think the main problem is in all these cultural enrichments coming here without a passport.
The government is to blame. Minister for housing.
Ireland has always had that problem.
Bingo, exactly that.
@@bighands69 Are you still waiting on that free house beside your mammy ?
@@bighands69 Ireland was commended by the UN in the 60s and 70s for the success of it's social housing success - it has not always had this problem
The price is too high.
When the value goes up the taxes go up and force the owners out. The buyers cannot afford the monthly mortgage payment.
What a kip of a country!! Thousands homeless....and government can't be bothered to penalize non compliance of dereliction
Taxing the rich always ends up hurting the poor. The problem is and always has been too much government, too many tax funded NGOs too many useless government employees doing nothing, all unionised to vote for their own interests and that is to keep them in power, increasing tax upon tax, driving up cost of living that the people cannot afford food let alone own any property.
Which country would you use as an example of small govt being a success ?
Who will conviscate somebody else's car from their house and give it to me because they are not driving it????
Very typical left wing view of the world that they have.
Christ at this rate if your not using rooms in your home, you’ll have the moaners complaining they should be allowed stay in them.
@@flipacoin3593 That’s already being discussed and planned. Big house with one or only two people living in it?
@@PB111627 tell me you're kidding
You can move a car elsewhere, but not a house!
Because the greedy politicians own them.
Hugh Wallace is the man
Why is there a discussion talking about someone else's property . Not yours not worry about it, mind your own business.
The Landlords in Dáil Éireann…
Social welfare is who we should really blame. 20 percent of new builds is giving away for a social needs and this is what kicks the price up. 4/5 of social welfare receivers are milking this country out.
The host needs to stop interrupting her guests.
They might be vacant. Are they habitable?
It's time for action now too many people dieing on the streets because of this government.
Get rid of the senator and use their wages to renovate
We are talking about a country with one of the highest GDP in the EU. I know how that is calculated but still. Let that sink in. It's sad and ridiculous at the same time.
Profits from a handful of multinational artificially inflate Ireland's perceived wealth. A plethora of taxes.. income..usc..plus Vat..pso..usc..impact on take home pay
@@annedonnellan6876
That is not how gdp works.
The Irish government, property developers, the EU and immigration both legal and illegal.
Well that current coalition should be illegal for sure, a right bunch of rogues they are.
Why do they have to be brought up to part L when they were built and used for many years without it?
Isn't this bureaucracy gone mad?
Unfortunately that coalition know very little about how bureaucracy actually works.
@@jakej2256 your reply reminds me of them.
What's wrong with a lick of paint and a new electric heater or maybe a new carpet to make an old place liveable?
That would do me rather than live in a tent in the street.
They're just making up obstacles.
They're all living in ivory towers.

If the government are allowed to force issues on to property they will get a taste for it and before people know it ordinary people will find government departments forcing them out of their house.
No one should be forced to sell but heavy property rates on empty property will help solve the problem
So you are forcing them by another means. If government get a taste for such things do not be surprised when they come for ordinary peoples properties.
Nice bit of sunshine today and we’re having chicken for dinner
LOL
What I do with MY property is my business..
The state is the ultimate owner of property in Ireland.
Its not property owned by private people. The state owns thousands of properties but is too lazy to actually do anything about it.
Sure if Vancouver is doing it jayz wed better🙄
stephen is a dope
