Median sale price

€230,0005,311 sales

In January to March 2016, 5,311 homes sold across Leinster at a median of €230,000, +4.5% on the same quarter a year earlier. The repeat-sales index, which compares properties with their own earlier sale and so is not moved by a change in the mix of what sold, was up 5.4% over the year, on 1,086 matched pairs. The CSO's own index for the same regions moved +7.0% over the same period. New builds were 12% of sales.

By county

County figures are medians, so they move with the mix of what sold as well as with price. The index above controls for that; a county median does not. Sales counts for recent quarters are a floor, because the register keeps accepting filings for weeks after a sale closes.
