There was more bad news for people trying to sell property in Mayo earlier this week, according to journalist Richard Curran’s RTÉ documentary Property Crash - Where To Now? He highlighted Mayo as being one of the areas that would be slow to recover from the current property market downturn. He cited from his research that Mayo had a large oversupply of new and secondhand homes and that, going on current trends, there was not expected to be a population increase demanding a major increase in supply. This news concurred with the most recent Daft.ie House Price Report, and does not paint a good picture as to the state of the property market in the county.
