In Dublin, the monthly pace of increase is of the order of €5,000.

The latest report from the property website concludes that we are likely on course for another year of double digit percentage increases with the annual pace of increase in Dublin back at over 10%.

The author of today’s report, Conall MacCoille – chief economist at Davy – said house price inflation should remain strong despite the likely abolition of the ‘Help-to-Buy’ scheme in the upcoming Budget.

The managing director of MyHome.ie Angela Keegan said the continuing tightness of the housing supply situation means houses are being snapped up ever more quickly by desperate buyers and that competition for properties will intensify during the year.

“There were only 21,000 homes listed for sale on MyHome in Q2, down over 11% on the year. This means that just 1% of Ireland’s housing stock of two million homes is currently listed for sale,” Ms Keegan said.

“In Dublin where demand is greatest, fewer than 4,000 homes or 0.85% of the capital’s stock is listed for sale,” she added.
