There were 269 properties for sale in Clare at the end of Q4 2025 – a decrease of 5% over the quarter.

The average time for a property to go sale agreed in the county after being placed up for sale now stands at just over four months.   

The author of the report, Conall MacCoille, Chief Economist at Bank of Ireland, said: “This quarter’s MyHome report adds to the evidence that the pace of Irish house price inflation is starting to soften. Asking prices were flat in Q4 2025, up just 0.1% in the usually quiet winter months, with the annual rate of inflation slowing to 5.4%.

“The market is still very tight. In December there were just 12,200 properties listed for sale on MyHome. The median time-to-sale-agreed remains low at 5–6 weeks."

Mr MacCoille added: “However, the froth in the market is subsiding a little. The median premium over asking has fallen back from a peak of 8.6% in July, to 7.4% in October and November.

“The mortgage data also pointed to more sedate mid-single digit gains heading into 2026. The overall impression from this quarter’s MyHome data is of the market pausing for breath after substantial price gains in 2024 and 2025.”

Joanne Geary, Managing Director of MyHome, said: “It is encouraging to see continued momentum in residential construction, which is essential in improving choice for buyers over the medium term. Increased delivery in urban areas is critical to easing the pressures that persist in the market.

“While there are early signs of stabilisation, conditions remain tight, and buyers continue to compete for a limited pool of properties. Ensuring that supply grows steadily will be key to supporting a more balanced market in the coming years," she concluded.
