It is only a few auctioneers who behave in a disgraceful manner. It is particularly disgraceful at this time when so many young people are trying to buy their first property. We hear stories day after day regarding people who, having viewed a house in a new housing estate, particularly in Dublin where prices are extremely high, put down a deposit to secure a house. Some weeks later they may get a telephone call to say their deposit may have to be returned or that a mistake was made and the wrong price was given or the particular house on which they made a deposit was priced differently. One way or another the people concerned find themselves in a situation where they cannot afford to buy the house.
