The commercial market throughout Galway city and the west of Ireland has proven to be resilient throughout an unprecedented 2022. After navigating through the Covid-19 pandemic, the unexpected conflict and war in Ukraine presented a new challenge to the market in early 2022. As a result, we have witnessed inflation rates nearing 10 per cent which has been felt throughout every industry, with property being no exception.

My earliest memory of Jim was of him building his house near us in Salthill. He had a small corrugated iron shed he lived in while working there. We local working men, all of us about six or seven years old, decided he needed a hand, so we went to “help” him, moving sand and mixing cement, etc. We were obviously a complete distraction and a nuisance but he was a gentle man. He would sit us down beside his shed, give us a slice of bread and jam, and then frighten the life out of us telling us ghost stories. A very nice way of getting rid of us at the same time as vastly improving the efficiency level of the amount of work being done on site.
