House price rises begin to slow

Last year was the best for price growth since the onset of the recession in 2007, survey shows

Last year was the best year for house price growth since 2007 and 2015 will see further price increases although at more modest levels, according to the latest house price survey from MyHome.ie.

The study shows that the price of homes fell in five counties in the last three months of 2014, mirroring a similar survey released on Monday by Daft.ie.
