House prices in Wexford and the wider south-east region have continued to rise, though the pace of increases has begun to ease, according to new data released by the Central Statistics Office.
In the 12 months to July 2025, house prices in the south-east—covering Carlow, Kilkenny, Waterford, and Wexford—were up 8.1%, compared to 8.8% in the year to June. This slight slowdown mirrors a national trend, with the most significant cooling seen in Dublin, where annual price growth has dropped from 6.8% to 6%. Despite the moderation, property prices outside Dublin remain strong, with double-digit growth still observed in regions such as the midlands and mid-west. The average national price for a home now stands at €374,999, while the most expensive areas remain Dublin and Wicklow. Experts say the dip is not unusual for summer months. The Irish Independent reports that Trevor Grant, chair of Irish Mortgage Advisors, noted: “While the fall in the rate of growth is welcome for buyers, it’s likely temporary—we could see price acceleration again in September and October.” For first-time buyers and investors in Wexford, the market remains active, though continued inflation may depend on seasonal demand and future interest rate movements.
