The popular property show "Cheap Irish Homes" is casting for its new season, offering viewers a chance to follow property guru Maggie Molloy and architect Tadgh Casey as they help match buyers with affordable homes across Ireland. The show, which has gained a significant following, focuses on guiding prospective buyers through the process of purchasing properties that often require some renovation. According to the producers, whether participants are a young couple searching for a budget-friendly first home, a family needing more space, or someone looking for a property to downsize into, "the Cheap Irish Homes team will work to meet your wish list."
Maggie Molloy, a key figure in the show, has previously spoken about the impact of the program on changing perceptions about derelict or dilapidated houses in rural areas. She noted that before the show and her Instagram feed, the conversation around these houses just wasn't happening on a national scale. Molloy even hopes that the show played some part in opening the government's eyes to the potential in old vacant houses.
The new season of "Cheap Irish Homes" coincides with a government grant for these homes, offering home buyers "some much-needed money to invest in essential upgrades." Molloy explained that if a house is classified as derelict, applicants can receive a further top-up of €20,000, and if they have a traditional farmhouse and are considering applying for the grant, they can get an additional allowance of up to €7,500 for expert conservation advice on how to refurbish their property.
The show's timing is particularly relevant given the changes brought about by the Covid-19 pandemic. Molloy acknowledged that the pandemic has led to a significant shift in people's priorities, with a growing buzz about living in rural Ireland like never before. The increased demand for affordable homes in Ireland is reflected in the show's continued popularity and the government's support for home renovation projects.
