Rise In County Wexford Rent Prices

Rise in county wexford rent prices

A lack of housing in County Wexford has resulted in an increase in rents across the county according to Daft dot ie. The latest report from the property website shows a 1.7 per cent increase in rent prices in the first quarter of this year. Nationally the average rent is now 9 per-cent higher than it was the same time last year - with Dublin rents 14 per cent higher. Ronan Lyons is an economist with Daft dot ie. He says a lack of supply is causing a rise in rent prices in County Wexford and that we need to start thinking of building again to meet new demand as the population continues to grow.
