No need to push, they got re-elected, no need for them to pretend to do anything about it until 2029 again
It’s very sad that this is what the Irish electorate voted for. Higher property prices while making housing unaffordable for our youth.
It’s no wonder birth rates are falling so much as well as the huge bomb that will go off when generation rent retires
And a low end property on daft.ie still gets 9000+ views in 10 minutes.
100,000 homes still wouldn’t be enough.
Roses are red, violets are blue, Ireland not able to build houses, no matter what you do.
Nothing will ever change.
Maybe stop voting for blueshirts and something will change
Truly shocking. I’m gobsmacked….
… That they only expect to miss by this much.
What momentum? Lol. You get what you vote for.
The government sets a target too small to make a meaningful difference, then misses it anyway.
Some extremely naive commenters here think that people voted FF/FG voted for “more of the same”. That’s nonsense.
It’s not a case of, “good option,(SF) vs bad option, (FF/FG)”
It was a case of, “terrible option,(SF) vs bad option, (FF/FG)”
Everybody in Ireland knows that housing is a shitshow. Nobody thinks the current situation is OK, and most would have voted for any half decent alternative. SF didn’t give us that alternative. Their support fell in the last election.
Missing by 15% is a lot but on the flip side – there are going to be 35k more houses than their were last year.
Not great but better than none. Hopefully the pace does pick up for everyone’s sake
Don’t worry lads. Didn’t Trump say it’s a good problem anyway?!

Please stop posting the writings of these absolute scumbags.
A loss of momentum?
The brief period of momentum was an outlier ffs
If its only March and already we are 6k behind before anything else goes wrong I’d say we’ll be lucky to get above 30k houses this year.
There’s a building site beside me where about 500 houses will be built and their foreman was telling us they can’t get tradespeople on site. Slowing them down massively. They missed their own targets last year because of it.
There’s still a strong pipeline, 69,000 commencement notices. So I wouldn’t say there’s a loss of momentum, but there clearly is something limiting growth.
I like that the Central Bank’s assessment is not “give money to developers”, but instead very clearly outlining a “build it and they will come” approach.
That is, rather than waiting for developments to happen and then scrambling to keep up with the sudden surge in local demands, we should be investing infrastructure with a forward look.
Upgrade water infrastructure around zoned land. Upgrade the roads, lay the cables for telecoms, put in your parks and cycle lanes and charging points and rows of shops.
So when someone comes along and thinks about developing on that land, they know they’re not going to be denied or delayed because the public facilities aren’t in place.
This is what some other countries do, and it works very well. Better to have the utilities built and underused, than be screaming out for them when you need them.
So that would make it two years in a row where we need twice as much as we plan for and we fall short of the plan anyway.
I have to wonder though, how much of this crisis would disappear overnight if we just banned airbnb?
How many are homes and how many are rentals?
How many of these homes were purchased by investment firms?
