House Prices In Cork Could Rise By Up To 4% In 2019

That's according to a new survey by the Irish Independent/Real Estate Alliance

The survey covers expected house prices for 2019, and found that, on average, growth of 4.2 percent is expected nationally.

The average price for a home in Cork rose to 317,500 euro this year.

The proposed further increase, however, is dependent on the outcome of Brexit, with a 'no-deal' scenario expected to mean house prices will either stay static or even fall in many areas.

Spokesperson for the Real Estate Alliance, Barry MacDonald, says places still recovering from the economic crash have the potential for the largest price rises next year.
