Renting in Laois
What rent is actually being paid in Laois, town by town, from tenancies registered with the Residential Tenancies Board.
Find it by Eircode instead
If you have an Eircode rather than a place name, its first three characters are the area. Each one lists the places inside it. These start in 2021, because the register carried an Eircode on almost nothing before then.
Where this comes from
The Property Price Register, published by the Property Services Regulatory Authority, used under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 licence and summarised rather than reproduced. Imported 9 September 2026. It records what was filed for stamp duty. It carries no floor area, so there is no price per square metre on this page.

How to read an entry on the Property Price Register
The date is not the sale date, the address is whatever the solicitor typed, and about 15.2% of entries in our town-level comparison sample carry no Eircode. What each field means.
Why the price on the register is not what the buyer paid
About 10.4% of sales in our town-level comparison sample are filed without the VAT the buyer paid on top. A €400,000 new build appears as €352,423. How to spot one and what to add back.
What a house actually gained between two sales
1,099 properties in our town-level comparison sample have sold more than once. Matching the two sales gives a real gain on a real house, which is a different thing to a national index.
