Ireland will need to build 93,000 homes a year up to 2031 – Davy

Ireland will need to build 93,000 homes a year meet demand between now and 2031, according to a report by stockbroker Davy.

The estimate is significantly higher than housebuilding targets included in the Coalition’s Programme for Government, which envisages 300,000 new homes being built between 2025 and 2030.

Last year there were only 30,000 homes built in Ireland, which fell short of the Government’s official target of 33,000 and far below projections by then minister for housing Darragh O’Brien.

Davy’s forecast is based on its estimate that the population will reach six million by 2031.

The report says the housing shortfall is now 230,000 homes.

It also says the lack of housing is impacting on household formation for younger age groups as it affects that cohort of the population having families.

South Dublin homeowner faces imprisonment or fine after retrofitting home under Government grant

A South Dublin homeowner is facing imprisonment or a €5,000 fine after being told to remove the external insulation installed on his home six years ago with the aid of a Government grant.

Clive Ryan spent €16,000 to have wraparound, external insulation installed on his home in Kilnamanagh in October 2018.

He received a €4,000 grant under the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI) programme following completion of the works by registered One Stop Shop provider Churchfield Home Services.

The Programme for Government committed to ramping up its retrofitting targets to deliver more B2 BER rated homes and to provide improved grants for homeowners who wish to enhance the energy efficiency of their homes.
