The RTB publishes rents for named neighbourhoods rather than for Dublin 3 as a whole, so there is no single Dublin 3 rent to quote. Across the 6 of 8 neighbourhoods it currently publishes (Q4 2025), rents run from €1,636 in Clonliffe to €2,115 in Clontarf. No rental yield is shown for Dublin 3, because averaging those neighbourhoods into a single district rent would invent a figure the RTB does not publish.
