What this platform is

Structured learning for people who find property confusing

daheruy was built around a straightforward observation - most people encounter property decisions with almost no formal preparation. Mortgages, planning permissions, lease structures, and title searches are rarely explained in plain language.

The lectures cover the mechanics behind each topic, not just the vocabulary. A session on rental yield, for example, walks through 3 different calculation methods with real Irish market figures.

Who put this together

The course material was developed by practitioners with direct experience in Irish residential and commercial property. No content is drawn from general international templates - every figure and regulation references the Irish context specifically.

The team keeps the material updated as legislation changes, including adjustments to stamp duty thresholds and Help to Buy scheme conditions.

Two ways people typically learn about property

01 The common path

Picking it up as you go

  • Information arrives in fragments - solicitor, broker, estate agent, each with a different angle
  • Decisions get made under time pressure with incomplete context
  • Mistakes in the first 6 months of ownership are rarely reversible
  • Key costs like LPT, management fees, and BER assessments often come as surprises
02 The daheruy approach

Structured before you need it

  • 38 hours of sequenced content, each lecture building on the last
  • Covers the legal, financial, and practical dimensions in one place
  • Accessible from home - no commute, no fixed schedule
  • Designed for Irish residents dealing with Irish property conditions

The people behind it

Small team, specific focus

Three people run daheruy full-time from Douglas Road, Cork. The platform does not try to cover every financial topic - it stays within the boundaries of Irish property, and does that thoroughly.

Lectures are reviewed annually. When the Central Bank changes mortgage lending rules or the government adjusts first-home scheme caps, the relevant module gets updated within 14 days.
