THE AVERAGE ASKING price for a home outside Dublin rose for the first time since 2007 in the latest quarterly report from property website Daft.ie.

The site’s latest price report found the average asking price for a house in Ireland is now €177,000 — up 3.5 per cent on this time last year.

The average asking price is still down more than 50 per cent from the peak of the housing bubble, but a lack of supply is now pushing up prices.

As we head into spring — typically a boon time for estate agents — we thought it would be worth taking a quick look at what’s on offer at the lower end of the market.

From fixer-uppers to fully-fledged starter homes — here’s an example of what’s available right now for less than half the average asking price…
