The National Asset Management Agency (NAMA) plays an important role in the delivery of social housing. To the end of September 2017, a total of 2,428 residential properties, which are part of the security for loans that NAMA has acquired, had been secured for use by local authorities or approved housing bodies. These comprise 2,216 completed properties and a further 212 that had been contracted and where completion work is on-going. A further 80 properties were considered as being active transactions whereby terms are agreed or active negotiation is on-going, and 285 other properties were to be further appraised for their suitability. These and other statistics are available on the website of the Housing Agency at http://www.housing.ie/NAMA.
The following table gives the breakdown of units offered and secured for social housing by NAMA and is broken down by local authority. The figures are available on a cumulative basis and a breakdown per annum is not available. However, previous status reports , which are published on a quarterly basis, are available on the website of the Housing Agency at https://www.housingagency.ie/our-services/housing-supply-services/nama/previous-status-reports.aspx.
