The party's plan aims to make housing affordable while making homeownership attainable for working people.
It pledges to deliver 370,000 new homes, private and public affordable homes to buy and rent, by 2030.
However, this 'game-changing' plan that seeks to end the housing crisis in Ireland can only be made possible under Sinn Féin led government, according to the party's President Mary Lou McDonald.
She said: "We'll deliver real support for first-time buyers, who will be far better off under a Sinn Féin led government. Affordability will be our watchword. We will, over time, phase out schemes that are driving up house prices, while we massively increase the supply of homes.

"The reality is that these schemes are not the answer but a symptom of the problem. We will focus on ratcheting up genuinely affordable supply across society so that you can buy a home of your own.
"We will also abolish stamp duty for every first time buyer on homes up to €450,000. We will also ensure that renters get a fair deal and a secure future – by cutting rents and banning rent increases for three years."
Ms McDonald also criticised Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil on how they have dealt with housing since their time in control.
"Fine Gael has been in government for fourteen years, joined by Fianna Fáil for the last eight years. Far from making things better, they've only made things worse,” she said.
"They've spent more than a decade making promises and breaking them. They will make all the same promises again during this election campaign, but the facts speak for themselves – neither Fine Gael or Fianna Fáil can be trusted on housing.
"It's time for a Sinn Féin Housing Housing Minister because only a Sinn Féin led government will fix housing."
