Irish mortgage approvals hit a three-year high in 2025, driven by first-time buyers and the Help to Buy scheme.
Mortgage approvals in Ireland hit a three-year high in the first ten months of 2025, with over 45,500 loans approved totaling €14.6 billion—the highest annual value on record since 2011.
Despite a slight monthly dip in October, mortgage values rose 4.2% year-on-year, driven by strong first-time buyer activity—accounting for 60% of approvals—and a surge in remortgaging.
The Help to Buy scheme saw 31,608 applications, 43% more than in 2024.
Meanwhile, UK mortgage rates are expected to fall before Christmas, with lenders like Nationwide lowering rates to 3.60%, signaling potential relief for borrowers.
