Rent prices across the Shannonside region have increased over the last year despite the ongoing pandemic.

A focus on remote working due to Covid-19 is one of the factors behind an increase in demand for properties outside of Dublin.

The report claims the Dublin rental market has been the most affected by the collapse in everyday activity, with prices down across the city and county.

Meanwhile, Longford has seen a 4 per cent jump in the cost of rent when compared to 2019, with the average cost at €758 per month.

Nationally Kerry recorded the highest bump in rental costs, with prices up 10 per cent on last year.
