Dublin is the second most expensive place to build apartments.
The Building Homes Report found the cost of building an apartment was €2,363 per square metre, just over €300 higher than the average across the ten cities surveyed, of €2,057 per sqm.
Zurich was the most expensive of the ten cities, at €2,866 per sqm, a level of cost notably above the other cities, while the Estonian capital of Tallinn was the cheapest at €1,367 per sqm.
One of the most surprising findings of the report was that Belfast, the second largest city on the island of Ireland, emerged as the second cheapest location in which to build apartments. The cost per square metre there was €1,755.
