Data in relation to leased dwellings, and dwellings delivered under Part V, in each of the years 2018 - 2020, broken down by local authority, is published on my Department's website at the following link:
https://www.housing.gov.ie/housing/social-housing/social-and-affordble/overall-social-housing-provision.
My Department does not publish details of individual homes; however, the average annual cost of leased dwellings delivered by each local authority for 2018 - 2020 is set out in Table 1 below. The average cost is calculated based on claims for operational new units submitted by local authorities and recorded on my Department’s Social Housing Current Expenditure Programme financial management system at year-end 2020 and does not necessarily represent the amount claimed or paid in respect of that period. The average duration of leases delivered by local authorities 2018 - 2020 is set out in Table 2.

With the exception of dwellings delivered under the Approved Housing Body Mortgage to Rent Scheme and National Asset Residential Property Services programme, ownership of all leased dwellings will revert to the private owner at the end of the lease term. The relevant local authority may seek to renew the lease or acquire the property at the end of the lease term. In general, rent reviews take place 3 years from the commencement date of the lease and every 3 years thereafter, with reference to the Harmonised Index of Consumer Prices.
The average annual cost of Part V leases set out in Table 4 is based on the average full year cost of the Part V lease agreements entered into by the relevant local authority in that year and does not necessarily represent the amount claimed or paid in respect of that period. In a Part V leased unit, the lease payment can vary depending on how the equivalent net monetary value has been reflected in the agreement. This is usually achieved by either a rent free period up front or a discount on the lease payment over the term of the lease (or part thereof). Where a rent free period is negotiated in respect of Part V units, no amount will be claimed or paid in respect of the units for that period.
