A Cork auctioneer says he cannot see house prices slowing in the wake of a possible tariff war between the US and the EU
There has been some speculation the housing market could be exposed to a sudden negative "economic shock" due to the risk of a tariff war
The housing market in Ireland is also heavily influenced by high income earners working in multi national sectors
However John Coleman of Coleman Auctioneers in Cork says demand for housing across the city and county remains strong with supply limited
"At the moment, the demand continues to be very strong., our population is growing, and this trend is likely to continue. The Cork housing market across the board, in all areas, we found that the commuter towns like Midleton, Carrigtowhill, Mallow - they've all got rail stations - the demand is very strong in these areas"
