The Residential Tenancies Board (RTB) doesn’t provide […]

Almost everybody who isn’t a politician agrees that politicians lie. Actual politicians don’t see it that way, the see it as being forced to accept a series of working realities which unveils the way the system ‘actually works’ versus how we would ‘like it to work’. The truth is that in effect they do lie when you compare election promises to results, but they don’t do it with total intent.
But sometimes they do, and we are seeing that with our proposed property tax which is a clear demonstration of lap-dog leaders who want nothing more than to be ‘box tickers’ for the troika.

TV3 The Morning Show, this week we looked at property tax with Alan and Aisling, we focused on the need for a Site Value Tax rather than opting for a property tax based on the entire market value.

As far as a ‘system of taxation’ goes, we think that less income tax is a great idea, that instead site valuations and local costs or spending should be borne by the locality and paid to the local authority. That means that the Household Charge – while regressive – is the right type of tax being levied in the wrong way.

Mortgages with a total value of €1.3bn were now in arrears of three months or more. This represents 16pc of its €7.8bn buy-to-let mortgage book — up from 10pc in December. Low rents and difficulties finding tenants mean many buy-to-let investors lost money on their properties, director of Irish Mortgage Brokers Karl Deeter said.
