Lack of homes available outside Dublin continues to drive up rents nationwide

A lack of properties outside Dublin is continuing to push up rents, even as things stabilise in the capital, with rental stock only a third of where it needs to be.

Prices for new rentals across the country rose by an average of 1.8pc between July and September, compared with the second quarter of the year, and were up 8pc compared with a year ago, the latest report by property website Daft.ie shows.

While 8pc marks the lowest rate of annual inflation in two years – in 2021, rents were rising at almost double that – areas outside Dublin are still facing double-digit hikes.

Sitting tenants have faced much smaller increases of around 3.8pc in the year to mid-2023. The Daft.ie report covers only new rentals.
