Scandalous that these homes just off main street of Balbriggan have been left derelict for 4+ years, council should CPO these immediately and fix them up to house families who desperately need it #DerelictIreland
Poor Irish LandLORDS only making the 4th highest rental yields in the World
Your heart would bleed
Or is it our taxes bleeding into their pockets though HAP, tax breaks, long term leases & €144k subsidy per new builds

I first photographed this home Dec'18
Jude Sherry & I moved from Amsterdam a month earlier & were already getting weighed down with sickening levels of #DerelictIreland
Still decaying 6 yrs later Cork City Council have never registered it as derelict
There are now plans to restore
Due to the overwhelming demand for more opinion space, we've cleared a chalk board

No one should have to do what Frank O'Connor & I have done
Law is in place for 34 years
It shouldn't be up to citizens or NGOs to ensure its enforced
We've provided our research, artwork & policy guidance Openly & Free so everyone benefits

Canvassed Kilmainham last wk/end. Always a shame to see a nice home boarded up, but a total disgrace in a housing crisis. Govt isn't doing nearly enough to tackle vacancy.
A vacancy tax of 0.5% of the value of the house won't motivate anyone to renovate or sell #DerelictIreland
This is what you get when you #WalkTalkChalk through #DerelictIreland
Ferry Lane, Cork City, Ireland
Almost €700,000 has been paid out in Vacant Property Refurbishment Grants by Donegal County Council to date, Donegal News can reveal. The Vacant Property Refurbishment Grant provides funding to allow people to refurbish vacant and #DerelictIreland homes.

Skibbereen Co Cork, could be anywhere
A picture is worth a thousand words
#DerelictIreland is depressing
Prevalent urban & rural
Absolute neglect of people & place
Potential homes
Squandered national assets/treasures
Irish expertise is a hollow pretence dominated by pretenders
