Evolving Buyer Behaviour in Dublin’s Housing Market

Despite some deals being re-negotiated, the latest Q3 report from Owen Reilly reaffirms that the Dublin prime residential market is still favouring sellers, with 92 % of our listings achieving agreement above asking. The rise in fall-through rates demonstrates a shift rather than a weakness — buyers are increasingly deliberate, ensuring their financing, inspection and planning considerations are aligned before proceeding. The message for sellers: preparation and clarity remain key to converting interest into successful completions.
