Low availability of properties sees rent in Carlow increase by 10% in past year

Market rent prices in the south-east rose by 10.9% year-on-year, down from 17% three months ago, according to a recent Rental Report by Daft.ie

The increase in rents reflects low availability, with fewer than sixty homes available to rent on November 1st, up on a year ago but only one quarter the level seen in the region during the late 2010s.

In Carlow, market rents were on average 10% higher in the third quarter of 2023 than a year previously.

The average listed rent is now €1,432, up 134% from its lowest point.
