Cannon welcomes choice of Athenry Castle as Galway’s greening beacon

O’Donnellan & Joyce auctioneers, Ireland’s largest independent auction house, hosted its first live property auction following the lifting of Covid-19 restrictions on Friday last, July 3. The auction was set to take place behind closed doors with phone, internet, and proxy bidders initially invited to participate; however the plans changed and the live auction went ahead thanks to the accelerated Government roadmap which allowed for a large public gathering to take place while adhering to social distancing measures.

ATHENRY, PORTUMNA, and Claregalway castles will be the setting for a series of concerts from the ConTempo Quartet, all of which take place this weekend.

The Connacht Property Auction has noted property transactions for the first half of the year in the Republic of Ireland are up by more than a third on the same period in 2014. An analysis of Property Price Register figures shows there were 21,425 sales between January 1 and June 30 this year. This is 34.6 per cent higher than the 15,920 transactions recorded during the same six-month period a year earlier. This shows that confidence is returning to the market both in the major urban areas and also the regional towns and rural areas.
