2026 in Meath so far
Meath is a county council county: Meath County Council has put up 14 of the 20 listings on the national portal, all affordable purchase, and Navan has had more schemes than anywhere else. Cost rental has come from Clúid and Tuath, all in Navan or Trim: Clúid let 36 three-beds at Woodstream in Navan at €1,374 in October 2024 and three more in April 2025, plus three three-beds at Effernock in Trim at €1,399; Tuath followed with 58 one, two and three-beds at Baker Hall on Academy Street, Navan (from €1,270, September 2025), 20 two and three-beds at Robinrath Green (from €1,270, November 2025) and a single one-bed re-let at Baker Hall at €1,175 in April 2026. That re-let was the only cost rental advert in Meath in the first eight months of 2026. The income limit is €59,000 net; a €1,270 rent needs about €43,500 net a year.
Purchase is where Meath moves. In 2026 alone the council advertised 60 two and three-beds at Bennetstown in Dunboyne (from €340,000, April), 14 at The Furrows in Ratoath (from €359,750, July), 8 at Cherryvalley Park in Rathmolyon (from €350,000, April), 8 at Foxwood Park in Kells (from €292,500, January), and small releases of two to four three-beds at Gilson Avenue in Oldcastle (from €275,000), Brackinrainey Woods in Longwood (from €350,000) and The Hollies in Ballivor (from €324,950) in June. Before that came Baker Hall (26 homes from €240,549, 2023), Effernock in Trim, Beaufort in Navan (two phases), Wellfield in Ratoath, Robinrath in Navan and a single home at Egland Park in Ashbourne (€395,000). Starting prices in the commuter towns (Dunboyne, Ratoath, Ashbourne) sit roughly €50,000 to €120,000 above Kells, Oldcastle and Trim. The income ceiling for each home is 85.5% of its market value divided by four; the purchase calculator works it out for any advertised price.
