What it is	Measures how residential property prices are moving in Ireland through the Residential Property Price Index, which tracks the prices of dwellings sold. Published by Ireland's Central Statistics Office (CSO), it is a central benchmark of the housing market.
How it's calculated	The CSO builds an index against a base year from recorded transaction prices (using Revenue tax data), controlling for dwelling characteristics to isolate the pure price change. It is released as monthly and year-on-year changes.
Market implications	House prices affect construction, household wealth and spending (the wealth effect) and financial stability through mortgage lending. In Ireland, where supply shortages keep the market tight, it is a closely watched political and social indicator.
Limitations	The index is published with a lag and revised as late transactions come in. Average prices can be skewed by the mix of sales (type and location of dwellings), and the small size of the Irish market adds volatility.
