Over 14% of all properties in the country are empty.
Ireland is facing the highest level of commercial vacancies since records began.
GEO Directory says 14.1% of all properties are now empty across the country.
The rate is even higher in Laois and Offaly, at 14.5% and 16% respectively, while it's at 12.7% in Westmeath.
It's the highest rate of vacancy since the database started collecting information 10 years ago.
