The latest figures for Ireland's residential property market reveal a notable cooling trend, with property price growth slowing to 6.60% in November 2025. This marks a decline from October's year-over-year growth of 7.30%, indicating that the surging prices prevalent over the last year are beginning to moderate.
These figures, updated as of January 21, 2026, underscore a shift in the property market dynamics as Ireland transitions from the rapid price increases seen over the past years. The comparison, which measures the change in property prices for November 2025 compared to the same month in 2024, suggests a recalibration in the residential sector as external economic factors such as inflationary pressures and potential interest rate adjustments impact buyer affordability and market confidence.
As Ireland continues to navigate post-pandemic economic conditions, this deceleration may signal a more sustainable growth trajectory in the housing sector. The coming months will reveal whether this trend holds and how it will affect the broader market and potential homeowners. Stakeholders and analysts will keep a close watch on subsequent data releases to assess the longer-term implications of this slowdown in property price growth.
