As a buyer, you're more than likely going to encounter a few estate agents on your house buying journey. But this is also a part of the journey which throws up a bunch of questions, especially if you are a first-time buyer!
How do agents get new business with today's lack of supply? Does the sale always go to the highest bidder? How much information should an agent request from you?
Our guest in this episode to help us answer these questions and much more is Ben Thompson of Churches Estate Agents. Apart from being Ireland's friendliest estate agent by day, Ben is also the editor of Irish Home Magazine and helped to create and publish the very popular Irish Home Buyers Journal which was launched in 2021.
He has a wealth of knowledge on the house buying process and we were very grateful to get him on the podcast to pick up some great insights into the world of agents!

House Buying Journey - Solo Buyer with Rebecca Lee
Buying a home in Ireland is harder than it's ever been. For first time buyers who are going solo and single applicants for a mortgage, the journey can be even harder! Our guest today, Rebecca recently went through that journey and bought her first home... As a single applicant!
Rebecca didn't avail of the bank of mum and dad, didn't receive any big inheritance and doesn't have Pat Kenny's salary. So how did she do it?
That's what this episode is all about. Rebecca brings us through her journey, the sacrifices she made, the hard decisions she took along the way and most importantly, getting her home!
Rebecca's story first appeared in the Irish Times in March of this year. The positive message and story she had caught my attention straight away so I was delighted and extremely grateful she could join us on the podcast.
This episode will give a lot of people hope and shares the message that there is light at the end of the tunnel. No matter your situation, you can do it!

What is the difference between mortgage protection and life insurance?
When should you consider income protection?
Can you get insurance if you have a long-term illness or condition?
How much extra does your insurance cost if you are a smoker (or vaper)?
Getting insurance for your mortgage can be confusing and stressful. You'll hear jargon and phrases you've never heard before and there can be some unexpected hurdles.
Here to help us navigate this topic, answer these questions and much more is Nick McGowan from Lion.ie. Nick has years of experience in life insurance but is the first to admit it can be a bit of a boring topic. With Lion.ie they do a great job making it a little less drab, a little more fun and in doing so take the stress and confusion out of the process.
Lion.ie has been recommended to me more than any other insurance broker so they are well worth checking out. Their Learning Hub, is the best online resource I have found to learn about insurance.

In this episode, we chat with Chrissy Hughes who recently purchased in Cabra. Chrissy fills us in on the journey she went through, including initial rejection from the bank and waiting a full year being sale agreed before finally getting the keys.
Chrissy found the entire process (or lack of a process) so frustrating that she started the First Time Buyers Ireland Facebook group. This is a place where people could go and ask questions and get advice from people on the journey themselves or who had recently completed it.
Today, the Facebook group is a thriving community of over 6k members and has helped countless people to navigate the house buying journey, get out the other side and into their dream homes.
