That said, the Central Statistics Office publishes data in respect of residential property transactions by non-households, including international investment funds. The latest data available are for 2023 and can be accessed on the CSO website (data.cso.ie/table/HPA10).

The data are broken down by NACE classification of the purchasers, i.e. construction, real estate, financial and insurance, public/education/health. Though not not broken down further, the finance and insurance classification includes banks, trusts, pension and insurance funds, and holding companies.
