Government to pitch for housing investment at international property event

An estimated €20bn per year in development finance is required to deliver at least 300,000 new homes by 2030

Housing minister James Browne said this is an 'important opportunity' to build 'new mutually beneficial partnerships to deliver homes'. 

The Department of Housing has announced that it will host an Irish pavilion at the major international property investment event Marché International des Professionels de l'Immoblier (MIPIM) in March as it seeks investment for housing development.

The event attracts numerous international property developers each year and presents an opportunity for Ireland to attract private investment to support the supply of new homes across the country.
