THE HIDDEN COSTS OF BUYING A HOUSE (in Ireland)

*All costs associated with getting & paying for a mortgage - EXPAND FOR TIMECODES*

In this week's episode of my Hidden Costs series, I'm looking at all of the costs associated with getting a mortgage (and paying that mortgage over the years). This is very Ireland specific, because it is the market I am most familiar with, but my UK viewers will probably find that some of the costs overlap... and for anyone else.. it just might be interesting to find out a bit more about the home buying process in Ireland.

And for reference, here's where I got some of the figures i wasn't sure of: http://www.moneyguideireland.com/lega...
