Earning an annual salary of €62,000, many individuals are unable to secure housing in major cities and surrounding commuter regions where property prices have surged. The survey examined two-bed properties across all 26 counties, revealing a stark reality: single buyers are increasingly becoming disenfranchised in the face of escalating costs, contributing to a broader housing affordability crisis affecting first-time buyers in urban areas.
