The price of the average second-hand three-bed semi in Co Waterford is predicted to increase by 10pc in 2025, according to a national survey by Real Estate Alliance.
Three-bed semi-detached homes in the county now cost an average of €266,500, up 9pc on the December 2023 average of €245,000, the Q4 REA Average House Price Index shows.
In Waterford City, prices rose to €312,000 in 2024, up 6pc on the December 2023 average of €295,000.
“The limited supply of new-build stock coming to the market will facilitate further price growth on the price of existing second-hand stock,” said Eamonn Spratt of REA Spratt, Dungarvan.
The REA Average House Price Index concentrates on the sale price of Ireland's typical stock home, the three-bed semi, giving an accurate picture of the second-hand property market in towns and cities countrywide.
House prices in western counties increased at twice the rate of the east coast last year as buyers battle over the lowest supply on record, the survey found.
