9 locations out of 16 surveyed offering nothing to HAP renters.
The dysfunctional rental market is driving people into homelessness, according to the Simon Communities.
The charity's latest report showed just 2 properties available to rent at standard HAP rates, with 9 locations out of 16 surveyed offering nothing to HAP renters.
The locations included selected areas of Kildare, Athlone, Cork city suburbs, Galway city centre, Leitrim, Limerick city suburbs, Limerick city centre, Sligo town and Portlaoise.
Only two properties were available within standard HAP rates, both in Cork city centre.
Simon's Wayne Stanley says the current situation is unsustainable.
