A planning row over the development of 55 apartments at a protected structure in a south Dublin suburb has resulted in dozens of residents submitting objections due to concerns about child safety, traffic and the impact on local creches and schools. South Dublin County Council granted permission to Emmaville Ltd, a joint venture between Tipperary building firm Clancy Construction and Cork property developers Lyonshall Ltd, for the construction of an apartment block at Scholarstown House on Scholarstown Road in Dublin 16 last month.

The unit in the 3000 block of Threecastles Way in Dublin was sold on Nov. 14, 2025 for $1,050,000 which represents a price per square foot of $539. The condominium, built in 2017, has an interior space of 1,949 square feet. This condo features three bedrooms and four bathrooms. Additionally, the condo provides two parking spots, granting ample parking space for two vehicles.

Santa Clara wrapped up 2025 with an impressive 2,768 new residential units, far surpassing the 155 completions from 2024 and earlier years. Most of these additions came as apartments and condominiums, with a small portion from accessory dwelling units and single-family homes. This wave of development marks a high point for the city, reflecting years of preparation that now deliver much-needed options amid the Bay Area's tight inventory.

Land Gorilla said the integration combines the Encompass Partner Connect framework with the company's artificial intelligence tools. Using automated workflows and AI-based document processing, the system maps construction budget data directly to loans, reducing the need for manual data entry and streamlining draw management. This is a major step forward for construction lending, said Sean Faries, CEO of Land Gorilla.

An affordable housing nonprofit has put the kibosh on selling some Santa Monica buildings to developer Leo Pustilnikov. At a Santa Monica City Council meeting last week, officials disclosed that they had privately discussed a potential sale of 419 and 1616 Ocean Avenue, properties controlled by Community Corporation of Santa Monica, the Santa Monica Daily Press reported. Any transaction would require city approval because Santa Monica deeded 419 and 1616 Ocean to the nonprofit in 2016 and retained reacquisition rights.

The 30,000-square-foot property has housed numerous notable individuals over the centuries, including Albert Clemens, the nephew of author Mark Twain, and architect Edmund Dreyfuss, who eventually passed the home down to his son, sculptor John Dreyfuss. Philanthropist Dr. Sachiko Kunō bought the mansion for $11 million in 2011 to serve as the headquarters for Halcyon, a nonprofit organization that helps to fund early-stage businesses across climate, health, and equity technology.

The spacious property in the first block of Calfhill Court in Los Gatos was sold on Dec. 12, 2025 for $3,275,000 which represents a price per square foot of $1,241. The house, built in 1973, has an interior space of 2,640 square feet. This two-story house offers a roomy layout with five bedrooms and three baths. Inside, two fireplaces add character to the home. The property is equipped with a heating system and a cooling system.

As interest rates ease and buyer demand returns, real estate agents face a critical moment to reestablish visibility and trust before clients are ready to transact. Winning listings in a rebounding market requires agents to show up with purpose, be consistent, and be where clients are looking for information about buying. Chris Mumford, VP and CMO of Marketplaces at CoStar Group explains why modern digital marketing is centered on building long-term brand presence across the entire buyer journey.

The marital home of English singer Lily Allen and "Stranger Things" star David Harbour found a buyer, less than three months after its starring role in Allen's acclaimed breakup album. The luxurious Carroll Gardens townhouse hit the market in late October, asking $7.9 million. The price was cut down to $7.3 million earlier this month. The final price to be paid, as well as the identity of the forthcoming owner, are not yet known.

The report alleges that, typically, if a seller complained to a traditional agent that a low-fee agent was willing to charge only 1% ($9,000) to sell a $900,000 home, the traditional agent would argue that the low-fee agent has to skimp on the quantity or quality of services being offering. According to Nadel, this alleged steering remains a problem, and he argues that the industry has used this to protect many billions/year in excess fees against effective price competition.

Born in New York City, Meg Darda eventually moved away from the city for life, school and work reasons. With her husband, macro economist Mike Darda, they spent over 20 years making the commute into the city, "always making time for a night out in the West Village," Meg begins. "It was our favorite neighborhood to eat, wander, and imagine a future where we might someday have a little place of our own there."

While helping countless clients buy and sell homes, Krista Zobel, a Realtor in Lincoln, Nebraska, has amassed a set of pro tips for moving-whether someone is relocating from across the country or just from around the corner.

An effort to develop housing at public transit stations in Santa Clara County has awakened after being dormant for decades - and is expected to rake in lease profits and fuel train ridership. VTA leaders next week will open the doors to their first new public transit-oriented apartment complex in 20 years, between the Willow Glen and Alma neighborhoods next to the Tamien light rail station. Complete with a child care center and improved transit plaza, the complex will offer 135 affordable apartments.

The current owner has it configured as a one-bedroom, which allows for a properly sunny and spacious living room in what is ostensibly the king-size primary bedroom. Pleasant western exposures in there along with a closet and a decorative fireplace. The second bedroom is smaller but also has a closet and space enough for a king. (It will be tight, though.)

Collins, the best-selling author of Pathfinders and The Simple Path to Wealth, said the reasoning is simple: Buying a home "dramtically inflate[s]" your cost of living. While your mortgage payment and rent payment may be similar on paper, owning a home ends up costing more in the long run and comes with unexpected expenses-often referred to as the "hidden costs" of homeownership, like insurance, repairs, and updates.

In a housing market defined by high mortgage rates and tight inventory, the very top of the market is still moving-sometimes at jaw-dropping prices.

When you live in one place for a while, it's natural to accumulate a lot of stuff. Whether it's knickknacks, mail, shoes, or piles of your kids' forgotten and abandoned toys, things just pile up. And while that may be a normal part of everyday life, when you're selling a house, minimizing clutter while maintaining warmth is a must to help potential buyers imagine themselves in your space.
