Property firm Irish Residential Property REIT made a pre-tax profit of €14.8m in the first six months on the back of rising rents and a growing portfolio.
The company had operating revenues of €11.2m in the first half of the year, compared to just €2.2m in the last six months of 2014.
It also logged a fair value gain of €10.1m on its investment properties.

The company holds a number of properties around Dublin, including developments in Smithfield, the Docklands and Sandyford.
