House Hunters International

Going Home to Dublin, Ireland (41x13)

Air date: Aug 20, 2012

Hoping to raise a family in the charm of Ireland's capital, a young Irish wife and her American husband relocate to Dublin. Dublin's real estate market is in a state of flux. It's a high priced rental market in a country where credit and mortgages have become impossible. Nobody's buying. Everybody's renting. Their plan to find a home near her family in Dublin's north side combines an ambitious wish list with high expectations, for the same amenities and space they've been accustomed to in their suburban Boston condo. A veteran-Dublin real estate agent shows them a variety of neighborhoods and properties, but none is a hands-down winner. It's time for compromise as House Hunters International goes back home to Dublin.
