More evidence of growing house price gap between Dublin and rest of country

Property prices in Dublin rose by 11% last year, while the commuter belt counties saw an increase of only 1%, a report on the market has revealed.

Daft.ie said Meath, Wicklow and Kildare saw little change while the strong growth in pockets of the capital masked figures that show prices still coming down in every other part of the country, including city centres.
