McInerney Holdings PLC (trading variously as McInerney Properties and McInerney Homes) was an Irish construction and development company with a focus on housebuilding, which existed from 1909 until 2011. The company initially focused on the Irish market but later expanded to the UK, Middle East and mainland Europe.[1][2][3][4] In 2009 the company was said to have built nearly 90,000 houses in Ireland including nearly 10% of the housing in Ireland's main cities.[5][6][7]
Following the bursting of the Irish property bubble, an examiner from PricewaterhouseCoopers was appointed to the Irish housebuilding arm of the company in 2010 and it subsequently delisted from the stock exchange. The scheme to resurrect the company failed and a receiver and liquidator was later appointed over most of the group companies in 2010 and 2011.[8][9]
