More than 36,000 homes completed in 2025By Cillian Sherlock, Press AssociationNew dwelling completions rose by more than 20 per cent last year, with 2025 seeing the highest number of completions since the Central Statistics Office tracked the figures in 2011. The new data from the CSO shows there were 36,284 new dwelling completions in 2025, an increase of 20.4 per cent from 2024. The number of apartments completed in 2025 was 12,047, up 38.7 per cent on last year. By Local Electoral Area, the most completions in 2025 were in Clondalkin in Dublin, with 1,399. That plan, announced in November, saw the scrapping of annual targets set by the last coalition, which set incremental increases from 41,000 homes in 2025 up to 60,000 in 2030.
