I am advised by Revenue that the table below provides the number of property purchases and properties purchased, where greater than ten properties were included in a single transaction in each of the years from 2015 to 2020. The data are based on Stamp Duty returns where multiple purchases were filed on a single instrument.
The returns do not indicate whether the intended use of the properties by the purchaser was rental or otherwise.
