I am advised by Revenue that the estimated value of residential property on the LPT register is tentatively estimated at €752 billion, of which the portion owned by multi-property owners is estimated at €258 billion. This high-level estimate is based on the median price by valuation band as of 2024 and the distribution of properties by 2022-2025 valuation band. The estimate incorporates the returned 2021 band 20 valuations grown forward to 2024. Local Authority owned and Approved Housing Body properties are automatically placed in band 1 and such the band 1 median price is applied to these properties.
