Site of GAA foundation among latest Allsop auction
The founding place of the GAA is among 230 properties up for grabs in the lastest Allsop Space auction.
Hayes's hotel in Thurles, Tipperary - where the GAA was founded in 1884 - is one of the commerical and residential properties with a combined reserve of up to 60 million euros at the RDS today.
The catalogue includes up to 100 properties in Dublin, with a number of former bank branches also on offer. Previous auctions from the company have sold between 88% - 95% of the available lots.
Director of Auctions at Allsop Space, Robert Hoban, says he is expecting a large turnout today:
"The market is improving, albeit slowly in a lot of areas," he said.
"The process itself is quite a clean process, which I think buyers find quite useful for purchasing property - because you can do all your research and your legals beforehand … and you walk away with a signed contract at the end of the day."
"It's certainly kept the popularity continuing to date."
