House prices are set to continue rising this year.
That's according to a residential market review by property advisors, DNG.
It recorded an increase in the average price of a second hand home, nationally, of 4.3 percent last year - and 1.8 percent for Dublin.
DNG’s Director of Research Paul Murgatroyd says the increases were fueled by the continued accommodation crisis:
"We require more rental accommodation. We require more social and affordable housing ,which the government is making great strides with its Housing For All action plan. We also need more property in the private purchase market. We know that the demand from first time buyers in Ireland remains strong, and that's not just for new homes, that's for second hand homes also".
