Properties owned by developers Seán Dunne and Paddy Kelly are among a list of 36 new properties to which State assets agency Nama appointed receivers in July.

The agency has updated its website to include properties including Dunne’s Hume House development in Ballsbridge and the Riverside IV building on Sir John Rogerson’s Quay.

Three Dublin public houses owned by Kelly - Grays of Newmarket, The Chancery Inn and The Legal Eagle, which is opposite the Four Courts - are also on the list.

Sites or units in Dublin, Cork, Cavan, Kilkenny, Meath, Tipperary and Wicklow feature on the list, as do two developments in the UK.

Units at a number of industrial estates around Ireland have had receivers appointed, the list shows. These include units at Baldoyle and Sandyford industrial estates in Dublin, and Blarney Business Park and Rockgrove Industrial Estate in Cork.

The total number of properties that have been subject to enforcement action by Nama is now 887.

The agency said today it had received 93,000 individual visits from users to its website since July 28th, when it first published a list of properties against which it had taken enforcement action.

Some 70 per cent of the users visited the site from Ireland and some 20 per cent visited from the UK, with the remaining 10 per cent originating from up to 148 countries.

“There’s been an incredible response to the information on the site,” a spokesman for Nama said.

“No doubt some visitors are simply curious, but many are very interested in what’s available to purchase and we hope that the site will encourage transactions on the relevant properties.”
