As part of the easing of Covid-19 restrictions, prospective house buyers are now allowed to view properties in person again.
In the middle of January viewings were moved online due to Covid-19 restrictions, and physical viewings were only permitted in cases where there was a bid on a home and a contract for sale was being drawn up.
Today was a busy day for estate agents, as they once again opened-up to house hunters after four months. There was also a positive response from the first people through the door at one of estate agent DNG's viewings in Dundrum in Dublin.
Looking to trade up, Darragh and Mirella Rogan had been confined to virtual viewings since the beginning of the year but for them they don't compare to the physical touch.
