Demand for housing is now the second highest in Europe with prices surging
Close to one in five consumers in this country are looking to rent or buy, the Banking and Payments Federation Ireland said, quoting European Central Bank statistics. Demand for housing in this country is now the second highest in Europe, after the Netherlands. The banking lobby group said 17pc consumers in Ireland, or almost one in five, report that they were looking to rent or buy. This is according to the February 2025 ECB Consumer Expectations Survey. More than one in four renters were looking for accommodation. And a fifth of those with a mortgage were actively looking for new housing. Banking and Payments Federation chief executive Brian Hayes said the strong demand for housing, especially among first-time buyers, was also evident in the fact that 17,144 applications were received by the Revenue Commissioners for Help-to-Buy scheme in the first four months of this year. This is almost 5,000 more than in the same period of last year. But supply is failing to come near to matching demand. Only one in 10 owner-occupiers said they were 'rather likely or very likely' to sell. The latest Housing Market Monitor Q1 2025 from the Banking and Payments Federation Ireland (BPFI) also shows that housing commencement numbers for the first four months of 2025 are only around 40pc of those in 2023. They are now at similar levels to those seen in 2016, a fact that means it could be years before the housing crisis eases. ADVERTISEMENT Planning permissions declined by over 21pc between 2023 and last year, the banking lobby group's report shows. Mr Hayes said Ireland has seen substantial population and employment growth in the past decade. With that has come a sharp increase in housing demand, during a period where the supply of housing has fallen behind, he said. 'We know that Ireland's population increased by around 735,000 people between 2014 and 2024, while in the same period employment increased by nearly 739,000,' Mr Hayes added. 'Meanwhile, housing completions in Ireland declined in 2024 for the first time since 2013, excluding the period between 2020 and 2021, when the pandemic affected activity significantly.' He said that on a rolling 12-months basis, a total of 30,356 units were completed to the end of March 2025 compared with 31,681 units during the 12 months ending March last year. But at the same time there continues to be strong demand for mortgages, with 9,190 mortgage drawdowns in the first quarter of 2025, valued at €2.8bn. 'Updated housing requirements must be incorporated into the planning system as soon as possible,' Mr Hayes added: Central Bank figures show that mortgage rates eased slightly in April, the third month in a row. And the largest servicer of mortgages on behalf of vulture funds, Pepper, has promised more rate reduction for the 'mortgage prisoners' trapped with it.

It's official… we are a nation of complete spoofers
Three has conducted a study that proves we are prone to lying A new survey has uncovered that Ireland is a nation of spoofers. According to the national survey commissioned by Three, 68 percent of Irish adults admit to telling someone they're en route before actually leaving and 58percent going as far as stating they are only five minutes away. The behaviour is most common among younger adults with 79 percent of 20-30 year olds owning up to it – and men are more likely to do it than women (72 percent vs 64 percent). Other highlights of the fun study revealed that 24 percent have lied about their Leaving Cert results with men more likely to exaggerate by over 100 points. Three Ireland temporarily rebranded their Dublin flagship store to 'One' 39 percent admitted to posting online to make life seem more exciting while just 21 percent say they trust brands who claim to be 'the best' without independent proof. Unsurprisingly, most people (both men and women) believe men are more likely to spoof. Other top spoofing habits? 59 percent of respondents say they've blamed 'bad signal' to avoid a call or reply – even when their coverage was fine. But with Three now independently ranked as Ireland's no. 1 Network for coverage, reliability and speed by Opensignal, that excuse may no longer cut it. To celebrate the award, Three is rebranding three of its flagship stores to 'One' for a few days in Grafton Street, Dublin; Patrick's Street, Cork; and Shop Street, Galway. The tongue-in-cheek activation flips the brand's own name to highlight its number one network status and plays on the idea that while spoofing might be part of Irish culture, one thing you can't spoof is your signal. 'Opensignal has named us Ireland's no. 1 network for coverage, reliability and speed – so to celebrate, we're changing some of our store names to 'One' to reflect that', said Ronan Gibney, Director of Sales at Three Ireland. 'Because while we know Irish people are prone to spoofing at times, one claim that isn't exaggerated is we're now Ireland's no.1 network, independently proven by Opensignal.'

New study reveals Ireland's most common white lie
New research has uncovered a uniquely Irish habit. Commissioned by mobile network provider Three, the study shows that Ireland is a nation of everyday spoofers. 'I'm on the way' is the most common white lie told by 68% of Irish adults. 'I'm on the way' is the most common white lie told by 68% of Irish adults.

The data shows that spoofing is particularly common among younger generations, with 79% of 20–30-year-olds admitting to this white lie. Men are also more likely to stretch the truth than women when it comes to their whereabouts, at 72% vs 64%. Over half of those surveyed (59%) have blamed 'bad signal' to dodge a call or delay a reply — despite having perfectly good reception. But with Three now independently ranked as Ireland's no. 1 network for coverage, reliability and speed by Opensignal, that excuse may no longer cut it. Three Ireland temporarily rebranded their Dublin flagship store to One. Pic: Brian McEvoy To celebrate the achievement — and have a little fun with the findings — Three is temporarily rebranding three of its flagship stores to One. For the next four days, stores in Grafton Street in Dublin, Patrick's Street in Cork, and Shop Street in Galway will sport the new name, poking fun at Ireland's love of spoofing while proudly owning the network's top-tier status.
