Is the first estimate free?
Many agents offer a non-binding initial estimate. Ask beforehand whether any costs apply.

Profile summary
MyHome.ie at a glance
MyHome.ie is an online property portal featuring listings from Ireland and abroad. Although classified here under estate agents, its website primarily describes a property search and marketing platform rather than a conventional estate agency. Its categories include residential sales, rentals, new homes, commercial property and overseas listings. Shared accommodation and holiday properties also form part of its search offering.
The portal was launched in February 2001 by Sherry FitzGerald, the Gunne Group and Douglas Newman Good. The Irish Times acquired the company in January 2007. According to the company profile, MyHome moved to the newspaper group’s headquarters on Tara Street in Dublin 2 in June 2012.
Property seekers can filter listings by region and other criteria. The website also identifies price-change features, viewing listings and the Property Price Register. Property reports and editorial information about buying, renting and selling complement these tools. The company page states that more than 700 estate agents use the platform for sales and rental listings, although the supplied text does not give a reference date for that figure.

Editorial context
Working with a provider in Dublin – what matters
Anyone appointing an estate agent in Dublin 2 should first distinguish between a property portal and the business actually handling the transaction. The supplied sources describe MyHome.ie as providing search tools and marketing opportunities. They do not establish that the portal itself conducts viewings, handles negotiations or offers a personally managed sales service. For any particular listing, prospective customers should therefore clarify who is advertising the property and which responsibilities that contact undertakes.
For buyers and tenants, the available location and property-type filters provide a starting point. Before proceeding, it is sensible to confirm availability, price, ongoing costs and viewing arrangements directly with the advertiser. Price-change information and the linked Property Price Register can provide additional context, but do not replace an assessment of the individual property. New homes, commercial premises and overseas properties may require separate discussions about specific requirements.
Owners considering advertising should distinguish the scope of a portal listing from an estate agency instruction. Questions should cover fees, listing duration, editing options, publication of personal contact details and responsibility for enquiries. The supplied website text does not provide complete terms on these matters.
When choosing an agent, relevant experience with comparable properties in Dublin 2, a clear service description and transparent costs are useful comparison criteria. Reviews should also be checked for an identifiable connection to the property service. General comments without a clear connection to the provider have limited value for this decision.

Questions & answers
Is MyHome.ie an estate agent or a property portal?
The website describes MyHome.ie as an online property portal and marketing platform on which estate agents advertise properties. The supplied sources do not establish that it provides conventional estate agency services itself, such as conducting viewings or negotiations.
What types of property can I search for on MyHome.ie?
The platform supports searches for new and existing homes, rentals, shared accommodation, Irish holiday homes, commercial property, overseas properties for sale and overseas holiday rentals.
What is MyHome.ie’s connection to Dublin 2?
According to the company page, MyHome.ie moved to The Irish Times headquarters on Tara Street in Dublin 2 in June 2012. Dublin 2 is also listed as a search area on the website.
What information does the portal offer beyond property listings?
The website identifies price changes, viewing listings, the Property Price Register and property reports. It also provides editorial information about buying, renting and selling.
How much does a property advertisement cost, and which contact details are published?
The supplied website text provides neither current advertising prices nor complete rules on publishing personal contact details. The amount mentioned in one review is not reliable evidence of a current tariff. Current terms and privacy settings should be requested directly through the contact form before publication.

Selected reviews on Google
The supplied Google data shows a rating of 4.2 out of 5 from 426 reviews. The reviews provided are only a selection. Three positive comments praise walking routes, scenery and views, without an identifiable connection to MyHome.ie or its property offering. One critical review complains about service, website bugs and the publication of private contact details despite an explicit instruction not to do so. That review also mentions a €75 property advertisement charge; this does not establish a current tariff. Recurring themes clearly related to the provider cannot reliably be identified from this small selection.
Lovely walks to be had on the long white strand. Great views across the bay to the 5 fingers.
Lovely wall along the Spinc via the miners village 😍
Another lovely place to watch the world go by
Rubbish service and amateur buggy website charging 75 euro to advertise a property. Prints private details and phone number on ad even though it was explicitly specified not to. Stick with daft.

Services in this field explained
A valuation estimates the price a property can achieve on the market, based on location, condition, size, fittings and comparable sales.
What does a valuation cost? Many agents offer an initial estimate free of charge. A formal market value report by a certified surveyor is paid; the fee depends on the property and effort.
When you sell, an agent handles valuation, exposé, viewings, negotiation and the notary appointment.
Who pays the agent's commission? When flats and single-family houses are sold to consumers, the commission is generally split between seller and buyer (§ 656c German Civil Code).
When letting, an agent takes care of listing, viewings, tenant selection and the tenancy agreement.
Who pays the agent when letting? Since 2015 the “orderer pays” principle applies to residential lettings: usually the landlord pays when they hired the agent.
