Property prices in Cork continue to rise
Property prices in Cork are still rising.
Figures from Daft.ie show the average house price here have gone up by 14.3% to over €303,000
Limerick and Waterford city there have seen increases of between 14 and 16%, while Dublin lags behind on 8.4%.
Ronan Lyons from Daft.ie says more people are looking to buy homes outside the capital.
"With people maybe looking to live slightly further away from cities since Covid broke out, it seems to have pushed those supply problems into other parts of the country.
"In places like Waterford and Wexford we're seeing 20% year on year increases, and that speaks to the ability of people to live a little bit away from those urban centres and that's why we're seeing the increases that we are."
