Where the most homes changed hands in the last 12 months

Price is half of a market; the other half is how much of it changes hands. 54,385 homes were sold in Ireland in the last 12 months, -4.7% on the 12 months before, or 10.6 sales for every 1,000 residents. Dublin 15 was the busiest single place with 1,459 sales; 17 of the 20 busiest are in County Dublin, and the busiest outside it is Drogheda, Co. Louth with 671. By head of population the busiest county is Louth at 13.4 sales per 1,000 residents; the quietest is Monaghan at 6.0.

A Dublin postal district is one "place" here, and so is a suburb inside it — Dublin 4 and Ballsbridge both appear, and their sales overlap. Each place links to its page.

Population is the CSO Census 2022 count for the county's local authorities. Sales per 1,000 residents is a turnover rate: how much of a county's housing changes hands in a year, independent of its size.

What it means for a buyer or seller

A busy market is a liquid one: more comparable sales to price from, more choice, and a shorter wait to sell. The county turnover table is the fairer comparison — a big county sells more homes because it has more of them — and the counties at the top tend to be the ones building most, since a new estate sells every unit once. The town table is where the count means the most to a buyer: 1,459 sales in Dublin 15 in a year is a market with a price for every kind of home, and the street list on its page shows which estates were busiest.

The change-on-year column is about supply as much as demand. A town where sales jumped usually had a scheme complete; a fall can be a scheme finishing rather than buyers leaving. The register also lags: this year's newest sales are still arriving, so the most recent months read low everywhere.
