It says in the last five years, house prices have risen 72% in these places.
Rents and house prices are surging faster in Ireland's top 10 gaybourhoods than in neighbouring areas, according to the report.
"Rents in Ireland’s gaybourhoods are on average €150 more expensive per month than in other urban areas", the website says.

The research identifies neighbourhoods with the largest proportion of same-sex couples.
The research was conducted by economist Ronan Lyons.
He says: "In Dublin's 10 most Pride-filled places, 8% of the population are in same-sex relationships, almost three times the fraction elsewhere in the city.
"The Top 10 areas saw their share in same-sex relationships rise from 5.6% in 2011 to 8% in 2016.

"Elsewhere in the city, the share rose by just 0.2%.
"Unsurprisingly, this strong level of demand in these neighbourhoods is pushing up sale and rental prices, as the figures show."
