Foreign buyers now account for half of Irish country home purchases

Ireland's beauty combined with increased remote working suits high-earning buyers

Ireland does scenic well, including here at Glandore, Co Cork.

If the last two years have taught us anything positive, it is that we are privileged to live in one of the most beautiful countries in the world. This came to the fore most prominently during 2021 with the influx of foreign buyers to our shores rendering the country homes market highly competitive for our home-grown buyers.

Overseas buyers account for approximately 50% of purchases in this selective segment of the market.
