The fast-tracked housing estates popping up across Cork are not for Irish families, they are corporate dormitories for the global tech workforce.
Through turnkey deals, the State uses your taxes to guarantee massive profits for developers like Murnane & O’Shea and Citidwell, building these schemes strategically next to major IT hubs.
Because these foreign workers—particularly from South Asia—are handed high-paying roles by these tech corporations, they have the ready cash to purchase these homes outright, snapping them up before an Irish native even gets a look-in.
While local people are priced out and trapped on endless waiting lists, the system is being rigged to funnel these modern, state subsidised properties directly to the global tech workforce. This isn’t a housing crisis they sell to us—it is a state managed displacement of our people to make room for a corporate preferred demographic.
