Summary

There are concerns Clare natives are being priced out of the housing market. A new Daft.ie report shows house prices rose by roughly 5.5% in Clare from the second quarter of 2025 to the same period this year compared to just under 4% nationwide. All property types bar one are more expensive than they were a year ago, with detached two-bed homes up over 18% on average, while new-builds are setting buyers here back around €385,000. Economist at Trinity College Dublin and author of the Daft.ie report Ronan Lyons has been telling Clare FM's Seán Lyons the rise in working from home is attracting more and more people into this county, resulting in higher price inflation.
