CIF To Hold Cork House Fair

The Construction Industry Federation will hold its second annual Cork New Homes Fair in the county tomorrow.

Over 1,200 people visited last year's two exhibitions, and the CIF hopes the 2009 event at the Imperial Hotel in South Mall will be equally successful.

The New Homes Fair offers an opportunity for prospective house buyers to capitalise on the great bargains that are available on the Cork housing market at the moment.

Joe O’Brien, CIF Director of the Southern Region, said: "There has never been better value in the new homes market and the Cork New Homes Fair will showcase this.


"A large selection of the most prominent house building companies in Cork will be on hand to talk buyers through their range of new homes and developments, and it also provides an ideal opportunity for prospective house buyers to talk directly with the builders about what they have for sale at the moment.

"In addition to the house builders, AIB will be there to take prospective buyers through the mortgage application process and tell them what they have to offer at the moment, which means people interested in taking out a mortgage and buying a new home can get all the information they need under one roof," he said.

CIF will also be providing those who attend with information about purchasing a new home such as mortgage interest relief, stamp duty and building energy ratings.
