The Simon Communities latest report shows there's no properties available to rent under the scheme.
There are still no properties available in two Midlands towns under the discretionary rate of the HAP scheme.
The latest Simon Communities Locked Out Of The Market report for June 2025 shows when applied, Athlone and Portlaoise have no homes that meet criteria.
It remains unchanged under the standard rate.
Nationally, 976 HAP properties are available down by 17% over the past year.
Executive Director of the Simon Communities of Ireland Ber Grogan says it's unclear why there's not more properties available:
