There are a couple thousand apartments being built (or finished recently) near where I live. Great spot close to existing infrastructure and more new infrastructure due to be built.
Not a single one is for sale. All owned by big corporate landlords for rent. So even if someone wants to buy an apartment there are zero new ones for sale.

Then encourage high density residential building. Issue national planning legislation forcing local authorities and An Bord Pleanala to look favourably on high density, high rise apartment buildings.

How many of these apartments have 3 bedrooms and for sale? You can’t compare living in these directly to owning a 3 bed semi, unless those criteria are met

I’ll happily live in an apartment if it’s fucking affordable!

As long as any new apartments have some sort of sound proofing so you aren’t able to hear your neighbours pissing and whispering, I’m all for it (doubt it’d be much more affordable though)

The future we are moving towards is one of no private homeowners, you’ll rent an apartment (no houses anymore) in developments like Clongriffin from the same multinational corporation that you work for, shop in & get your leisure activities from. a life outside of this system won’t be an option

Good sized apartments are perfectly fine to raise families in, itself the norm in a lot of European countries.
Shoeboxes on the other hand, just suck.
One option prioritizes profit, one prioritizes the social good.
It’s a political choice that I have no faith in FF/FG/Ind to make

If they are able to sound proof properly would do that.
