Properties are still being sold online

Several online property auctions are due to take place before 2020 comes to an end.

This includes IAM Sold’s Munster Property Auction which will take place today, 29 October, with two others planned on 26 November and 17 December. The company said its online auctions are in high demand over the past few months.

Sales Manager, Liam Farragher said: “In response to the Government’s decision to move the country to Level 5 last week, the Property Regulator (PSRA) have announced new, temporary, guidelines for the property sector.

“One important guideline to note is property viewings may still go ahead where the property is vacant and all social distancing and HSE and Government procedures are followed. Engineers, BER assessors and bank appointed valuers may also be permitted to enter properties. With the current housing need and lack of supply, this allows auctioneers to safely market and sell properties where it is safe to do so.”
