Revised housing targets could increase demand for already scarce surveyors, says report via IrishTimesBiz

The Irish Times reported last week that unpublished research by the Housing Commission, which was shared with Minister for Housing Darragh O’Brien in November, indicates that Ireland requires between 42,000 and 62,000 new homes every year – under Mr O’Brien’s Housing for All strategy, 33,000 is the average annual target in the period to 2030.

“It is very likely that the Housing for All targets will undergo significant upward revision in the coming weeks, and this is going to increase the demand for all types of surveyors,” Mr James said. “Given that this research was conducted at a time of market uncertainty it is likely that the estimates of future employment demand are conservative.”

The survey found that the median salary of a surveyor is €77,200, an increase of 10 per cent on the last survey which was carried out in 2019. Meanwhile, the median salary for women in the industry in the fourth quarter of last year was €70,000, 14 per cent less than the median male salary of €80,000.

GAA order replay of All-Ireland Club final between Kilmacud Crokes and GlenGAA order replay of All-Ireland Club final between Kilmacud Crokes and Glen. Correct decision but going to be interesting how they squeeze it in with the inter County gamed in full flow. This could get very ugly if Crokes refuse to play. What would the GAA do then Would they take the cup off Crokes and hand Glen the title? It's also going to be very hard for both teams to psych themselves up to go again. If the GAA had sorted this the morning after the game. If it means so much to Glen,Crokes should let them have the cup. Wouldn’t concede to this farce. Can one just imagine the consequences of this ruling in the future.
