COMMENCEMENT NOTICES WERE lodged for just 723 homes in March across Ireland, a slowdown on previous months and the lowest number in four years.
The figure shows that nearly 300 fewer homes were at the start of the building process than in February, according to figures provided by the Department of Housing.
The figure from March 2025 was the lowest number of homes which had notices lodged since February 2021 when only 522 homes were commenced.
