Tipperary was up 15% followed by Limerick at 12.6%, Waterford & Cork each at 10.6% while Kilkenny’s rose by 5.4% and it was a 3.1% increase in Carlow.

Meanwhile, the number of homes available to buy nationwide at the beginning of the month was below 10,500, down 24% year-on-year.

Economist at Trinity College Dublin and author of the report Ronan Lyons says the biggest increases were seen in rural areas noting; “In the year to March is an increase in prices nationally of almost 6%, on average 5.8%, that does hide some regional variations, so Dublin and the surrounding counties have seen typcially smaller increases, Dublin the increase is 3.2% over the course of the year but just more generally the rural markets have seen bigger increases”.
