Certain data on loan approvals and payments in respect of new homes for the years 1970 to 2006 and 2007 to 2016 are available on my Department’s website. Due to a change in data sources for lending institution information, loan payments data up to and including 2006 are not directly comparable to the information from 2007 onwards. The data from 2007 onwards relates to loan payments by the Banking Payments Federation of Ireland and local authorities. Data prior to 2006 was sourced directly from lending agencies and local authorities and included an unquantifiable element of mortgage re-financing.  

This data can be found at the following weblink under the loan payments heading:
