I see a pattern here… Some kind of correlation with housing crisis maybe?

Ireland hardly has anything but houses anyway 🤣🤣🤣
Did you ever see a building anywhere in Ireland that has 100+ flats. No you probably did not.
And that right there is why Ireland has housing problem. Cuz you can fit whole estate of detached, semi-detached resident in one big apartment building.
Same building that literally every single other country has except Ireland.
Like you have literally apartment buildings in China, like literally only 1 building that has more people living in it then towns in Ireland 🤣🤣🤣

Well yeah, we refuse to build up which is one of the big contributions to the housing crisis. If we don’t build up we’re going to have a much higher % of house s.

It’s changing somewhat with more apartment buildings but Ireland is historically very, very house focused and extremely low rise.

Need way more apartments here. Great to see the funds starting to invest again to deliver them

A lot of 1 or 2 bed terraces in Irish cities with little garden/courtyard.

And how many are having sex. I bet it’s a good load lower than 90%.

Loads of apartments going up in my local area, it’s great to see.
Personally, I’d take an apartment, with good public transport links, over a house any day

Avoiding apartments will only worsen the housing crisis and commuting problems, making people more and more car dependent. No bright future

Apartments have a poor reputation, with a lot out there being Celtic tiger jobs that are thrown together, that combined with a lot of pretty poor management companies it’s a hard sell. Changing slowly only because people can’t afford an alternative

Then allow the building of high rise apartment buildings.

Let’s look at the unfortunates who bought in likes of priory hall etc and wonder why people run a mile from an Irish built flat.

Remove the height limits in city centres.

not surprised ireland is so high the housing stock is basically low rise sprawl and a lot of people grow up with the idea that a house is the default
the irony is even with 90 percent in houses it still feels impossible to get one now
also curious how they count apartments vs duplexes and terraced houses because ireland has loads of semis and terraces which still show as houses but density wise its a different story
