Two different surveys out on Tuesday give one clear message about the housing market. Meanwhile, the latest Daft.ie report for the rental market shows that the supply of properties available to rent has hit a new low. They underline the lack of progress under the previous coalition – and the pressure now on the current Government.

Meanwhile, pressure is being put on the local authorities to increase the supply of zoned land – and the Government is hoping for a response on rental supply.
