Who We Are

Hero Image

As experts in property since 1971, Grimes is a proud family-led company that provides an excellent service to every client, always operating with honesty, integrity and dependability. Our generations of experience give us the edge in knowing what our clients need, whether you’re a first-time buyer or seller, an investor or a property developer.

Our story began in 1971, when Paul Grimes & Associates Ltd was established in Ashbourne. We have since expanded to include branches in Skerries, 132 Baggot Street Lower in Dublin 2 and Clontarf.  From a solid family background steeped in the property business Grimes have now assembled a team of some of the most talented and experienced people in each of our four branches, all of whom have an in-depth knowledge of the South County (East) Meath / North County Dublin/Dublin City property markets.
