Over 4,500 dwellings were purchased in the ninth month of this year, an increase of 6.5% compared with the 4,304 purchases in September 2021.

The median price of a dwelling purchased in the 12 months to September 2022 was €299,500, up marginally from an average of €295,100 in the year to August 2022.
