If we were already at peak housing crisis, September has squeezed the market even tighter.
With an influx of students to the city all looking for accommodation, finding a decent place to live is basically impossible.
Photos from a "semi-affordable" rental viewing in Dublin yesterday just prove this fact.
Shared by Peter Bodkin, editor of Fora.ie, the photos tell a bloody mad story.
Dozens of people lined the streets hoping to get a viewing of the house, with Peter noting that the agent didn't have much of a job to do when it came to a sales pitch.
As Peter noted 'Does it have a roof? Sold'.

A toothless man just rode by a bike and yelled, You’re in the death-throws of capitalism. We wish mate, we wish

Agent now here, actually delivering a half-hearted sales pitch to the gathered horde. Does it have a roof? Sold. pic.twitter.com/EkDUIfk5Wh

Peter noted that there were two pregnant women among the viewers, writing: 'Can’t imagine looking for a place in the middle of this shitshow with a kid on the way'.
Lunacy.
