McInerney Holdings PLC
McInerney Holdings PLC (trading variously as McInerney Properties and McInerney Homes) was an Irish construction and development company with a focus on housebuilding, which existed from 1909 until 2011. The company initially focused on the Irish market but later expanded to the UK, Middle East and mainland Europe. In 2009 the company was said to have built nearly 90,000 houses in Ireland including nearly 10% of the housing in Ireland's main cities. Following the bursting of the Irish property bubble, an examiner from PricewaterhouseCoopers was appointed to the Irish housebuilding arm of the company in 2010 and it subsequently delisted from the stock exchange. The scheme to resurrect the company failed and a receiver and liquidator was later appointed over most of the group companies in 2010 and 2011. History McInerney Homes was started by Thomas McInerney when he built his first house for a neighbour in Tulla, County Clare in 1909. Thomas McInerney and Co Ltd was incorporate ...

Property Companies Of Ireland
Property is a system of rights that gives people legal control of valuable things, and also refers to the valuable things themselves. Depending on the nature of the property, an owner of property may have the right to consume, alter, share, redefine, rent, mortgage, pawn, sell, exchange, transfer, give away or destroy it, or to exclude others from doing these things, as well as to perhaps abandon it; whereas regardless of the nature of the property, the owner thereof has the right to properly use it under the granted property rights. In economics and political economy, there are three broad forms of property: private property, public property, and collective property (also called cooperative property).
