Why use the CSO RPPI
The Residential Property Price Index (RPPI) is Ireland's official residential property price index. It's compiled monthly by the Central Statistics Office using stamp duty returns filed at Revenue — meaning it's built from every recorded property transaction in Ireland.
Daft.ie and MyHome.ie are listing platforms. Their reports show asking prices and trends in current listings. The CSO RPPI shows actual transaction prices.
For tracking the value of a property you already own — especially relevant given the Irish market's volatility — transaction-based data is the right benchmark.
How WealthMap tracks Irish property
Enter your Irish property: location (Dublin or 'Rest of Ireland'), property type (house or apartment), purchase date, purchase price. WealthMap applies the RPPI change for your category since the purchase date.
Example: a Dublin 2-bed apartment bought in April 2018 for €380,000. The Dublin apartment RPPI rose roughly 24% by January 2026. WealthMap shows your current value as €471,200 with a +24% gain — plus a monthly chart of how it tracked vs the Dublin apartment index.
Data is pulled from the CSO on-device. No subscription. No scraping.
Dublin vs the rest of Ireland
The CSO RPPI publishes separate indices for Dublin and for the rest of Ireland (excluding Dublin), with further breakdowns for apartments vs houses. The Dublin and non-Dublin markets behave quite differently — using the right sub-index matters.
WealthMap supports all four combinations: Dublin apartments, Dublin houses, Rest-of-Ireland apartments, Rest-of-Ireland houses.
Beyond Irish property
If you're an Irish resident with property abroad — a London flat, a Lisbon apartment, a Mallorca holiday home — WealthMap tracks each one against its own country's official index. The dashboard aggregates everything in EUR (or your base currency of choice).
