The Residential Property Price Index (RPPI) is designed to measure the change in the average
level of prices paid for residential properties sold in Ireland. The index is mix-adjusted to allow
for the fact that different types of property are sold in different periods.
The RPPI is compiled using data on mortgage drawdowns provided on a monthly basis by 8 of the
main Mortgage Lending Institutions under Section 13 of the Housing Act (2002)
