Show Notes
Kerrys housing approvals plummeted in 2025, with only 552 new homes approved, a stark contrast to the 1131 in 2024. This slowdown follows a similar trend in 2023, leaving local builders and families in the lurch amid Irelands housing shortage. Despite a nationwide rise in approvals, Kerrys one-off houses averaged 217 sq. meters, down slightly from 216 in 2024 but up from 230 in 2023. Development houses averaged 123 sq. meters, while apartments came in at 89 sq. meters. As Kerrys housing plans lag behind national trends, all eyes are on local authorities to boost approvals and meet demand.
