What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Central Statistics Office reported that new homes completed in the third quarter of 2026 rose by 10.4% compared to the same period in 2025. During July, August, and September, there were 10,154 new dwelling completions, bringing the total for this year to 26,883. The Department of Housing stated it could not publish monthly homelessness figures because industrial action prevented the compilation of the report.

Why it matters

The figures contribute to the national economic picture and housing market health in Ireland. Despite the increase, the target of reaching 300,000 homes by 2030 remains unmet. Industry projections for new home completions this year are around 40,000.
