Managing Agents in Co. Clare

County Clare's housing stock is dominated by houses and bungalows, with apartments and flats accounting for approximately 5.9% of dwellings — well below the national average of 13% — according to Census 2022. Multi-unit stock is concentrated in Ennis, the county town, where recent planning permissions have included four-storey apartment buildings in the Drumbiggle area, and in Shannon, a planned 1960s town of around 9,700 residents adjacent to the Free Zone industrial park and airport. Killaloe, on the Lough Derg shoreline, has also seen notable residential growth.

Given Clare's strong owner-occupation rate (72%, versus 66% nationally) and the relatively modest share of apartment completions — just six out of 179 new dwellings finished in 2023 were apartments — the OMC sector is smaller than in urban counties. None the less, established apartment schemes in Ennis and Shannon require licensed managing agents, and new permissions signal gradual growth in multi-unit stock.

Census 2022 recorded 2,175 households in purpose-built apartment blocks in Co. Clare — 4.7% of all households (CSO table F2011).
