With Sinn Féin highly likely to get into government in the near future - potentially without the need for a coalition partner - what are the views on the impact this will have on property prices?
Personally I see this as big negative for house prices. They are likely to intervene heavily in the rental / investor market to the detriment of the landlord class. More generally I expect high investment in social housing which will impact the lower end of the market. And finally, I expect they will tax the sh*t out of the professional classes which will impact the higher end of the market.
Oh and expect Inheritance Tax to go through the roof…
