Pent-up demand for property

Sat Mar 08 2014 - 01:05

Sir, – I felt nothing but sympathy for the "fed-up" gentleman who is having difficulty buying his fifth property ("Dublin buyers fed up with pent-up demand", Property, March 6th). It seems pent up-demand is the issue causing him to be "messed around".

One could argue, and I don’t wish to cause anyone offence, that if everyone demanded five properties, there might not be enough to go around. – Yours, etc,
