Was talking to a mate in the industry the other day
Builders are all holding off for the reduction in apartment size which is supposed to be coming and thats why none of them are starting projects and its down so much

Ah sure we’ll all just stay in tents when we are older

I’m starting think it might be time to just give up altogether and hand over control to another country, ideally a competent one in mainland Europe.

Housing commencements are down because of difficulties financing projects. No one is waiting for new rules.
It’s probably a harbinger of a downturn tbh

Phew.. good job we’re managing external flows into the country to counter act this.

What a surprise that the promise of 40k a year was absolute shite talk

People on here won’t hear of it but…..
Materials and labour are basically extortion at the current market rates.
I know several people sitting with planning approved that won’t pull the pin until it’s absolutely necessary.
In one case they bought a second hand 3 bed rather than build their own plans.
We could see a kind of fucked up scenario where people needs homes but the cost of building not allowing them to be built – same thing happened in the early 80s

And yet ESB waiting times for new connections are through the roof. Makes no sense.

Where are the FF/FG bootlickers to spin this?

Hmmm, I’m sceptical about these figures.. Seems everywhere I look lately, there are new builds going up, lots of apartment blocks and estates being built. I Havnt seen this many new builds since the boom. Maybe they all just started building towards the end of last year, but I would have thought the figures would be much higher for this year. Personally, I see far more going up now than in 2023, the 80% drop figure I’m doubtful of. Could just be my local area though idk. Can’t really argue with figures from Department of Housing though, just don’t understand it

Houses will be built by robots in about five to seven years.
Buying a half million euro house now at the moment is madness.
Housing, like everything else, is going to trend towards zero.
Is this a worldwide problem? I’ve recently heard Canadian, Australian & New Zealanders saying exactly the same thing
Lads, what are we meant to do?
I’m actually just far past my wits end. I feel like crying.
I’m going to all the marches, saving every bit of my income I can and moving in with my parents.
What can we do????
There is only one solution: give FF and FG another 12 years in government.
