Fewest available Munster rentals in 17 years

This is the first time since the final quarter of 2013 that rents in Cork City have not risen quarter-on-quarter, says Daft.ie. 

Munster now has its lowest number of available properties to rent in 17 years, but Cork rents have not risen for the first time in a decade.

Just 959 homes were available to rent across the country at the start of this month, one of the three lowest monthly totals going back to 2006, Daft.ie's rental price report for the first quarter of the year found.
