Property Price Register sales to 25 September 2026, CSO RPPI to July 2026, RTB rents to Q4 2025. How we compute these figures
Source: Property Price Register for sales, CSO RPPI (HPM05/HPM09) for year-on-year context, and RTB (RIQ02) for rents, which the RTB publishes as an average monthly rent for the quarter shown. The medians on this page adjust new-build prices for VAT. The individual sale records listed above are shown exactly as the register holds them, which for a new build is the price before VAT. The latest recorded year is partial. See ourmethodology for how these figures are computed.
