Poll: What do you think about house prices rising?

Houses prices in Dublin and some other parts of the country are rising at the fastest rate since 2007 – but is this good or bad?

NEW FIGURES FROM the Central Statistics Office have confirmed what has become apparent in recent months – property prices are rising again in parts of the country.

Demand is increasing in places like Dublin – where prices are up a massive 12 per cent compared to last year – as the number of houses for sale remains low.

So today we’re asking: what do you think about house prices rising?
