Who is Eamon Waters? – Meath man made a fortune on bin collections and is now monopolising Dublin’s property market with his war chest of over €400m
Fresh from selling his waste company, he has been busy snapping up some prime real estate across the nation’s capital
Eamon Waters set up Sretaw Private Equity in 2021 and since then he has embarked on a whirlwind of purchases
A Meath man is buying up Dublin. Flush with the proceeds of the €1.4bn sale of his waste management company three years ago, Eamon Waters has been purchasing hotels, office blocks, shops and shopping malls, even Georgian townhouses on Merrion Square.
He has also become an active player on the Irish stock market, taking decent-sized stakes in a bank, a hotel group, an insurer, and a transport group. Yet, Waters is far from a household name and attracts almost no personal media coverage.
