When you buy a property in Ireland you pay stamp duty (transfer tax). The property registry has collated details of every residential real estate transaction in Ireland from January 2010 to September 2012. You can search by address, county, town etc. The information about the properties is limited. As a standalone resource it doesn’t help much. But, using it in conjunction with other research it can be very useful.

There’s something about buying a property overseas. The purchase process is alien compared to the one back home…you don’t speak the language…and it’s all so exciting and full of possibilities.

In February I told you that Las Terrenas on the Dominican Republic’s Samana peninsula is a little piece of paradise. Nineteen miles of walkable public beach, palm trees, warm breezes and stars so bright it feels like you could pluck them from the sky. I can’t think of a nicer place to have a beach home. You’ll find your dollars stretch here, too. Particularly with an opportunity like this one...
Greetings from the Greek island of Santorini. I’m coming to the tail end of a two-week trip to Greece. I’ve been reminded how truly stunning her islands are. I’ve also got under the hood of what’s happening on the ground with their politics, economics and real estate market.
There will be many more potential tipping points as Greece’s economy and politics continue to unravel. I won’t be watching the news feed. I’ll be on a flight to Greece for two weeks of serious boots-on-the-ground research. That’s more important than the Angela/Antonis body language.
One member of our little group has the opportunity to lock down a 1.47-acre lot for only $42,000 in the best-in-class project on Costa Rica's Caribbean Coast. The lot listed for $78,000. Now the owner is in a bind back home. He needs to sell fast. The developer has agreed to help facilitate him. That's why I'm sending you this Flash Alert today.
