Suburban house prices ‘set to rise’

HOUSE prices in city suburbs could see a modest growth next year.

Head of residential property at Savills Ronan O’Driscoll said the most active sector of the housing market is the realistically priced three- and four-bedroom family houses in traditional, established city suburbs.

He said for houses in this category there is “clearly an undersupply of suitable houses and plenty of mortgage-approved buyers”.
