Buying a house

8 years ago
Hello out there

We are a retired couple hoping to move to Ireland in the next year. My husband was born in Dublin, I'm British, so hopefully no problems there, however, I have read of people having so, so many problems buying a house. We won't need a mortgage, so one hurdle we dont need to negociate.

If you have had problems buying a home, can you outline (I am not asking for personal details) the problems, encountered, and how you have overcome them.

One issue we might have is we have a very poor credit history in the U.K. (a crooked accountant screwed us real bad) but will need an Irish bank account,

So those if you with experience, we would really love to hear your stories.
