Market Overview Summary

The Private Rented Sector (PRS) continues to perform strongly, with more than €720 million invested in the sector during the first half of 2019 accounting for 38% of all property transactions. This compares with 31% of total investment turnover in 2018 and reflects a sharp rise in the construction of new apartment schemes. Investment has been driven by strong demand for rental accommodation in the main urban centres, specifically in Dublin which is driving strong rental growth. The market has responded to this demand with the number of privately rented dwellings in Dublin increasing by 13,800 between Q1 2018 and Q1 2019.

One of the key drivers of demand in the sector is the growth in the number of people employed and the overall health of the labour market. Employment levels increased by 2% (+45,000 persons employed) in the year to June 2019 bringing overall employment to 2.3 million – the highest level on record. Unemployment remains at, or close to, ‘full employment’, at 5.2% as of August 2019 with labour market shortages increasingly being met by non-Irish national workers. Indeed non-Irish workers, who have a higher propensity to rent, now account for 16.7% of total employment in Ireland. Over the past ten years there has been a near 80% increase in the number of non-Irish nationals employed in the TMT sector, with jobs mainly concentrated in Dublin.

These trends are supportive for PRS demand in Ireland, both as a result of European and international preferences for rental over ownership, and the growth in the number of workers in professional highly paid jobs. In addition, the return of positive wage growth has contributed to rising rental levels, with average weekly earnings increasing by 3.5% in the year to June 2019.

Average rents in Dublin now stand above €2,000 per month and rental growth is forecast to continue albeit at a more moderate rate than in recent years. 28 29
