There have been more than 2,300 applications for 46 apartments that are being offered at discounted rents at Google's Bolands Mills Quarter in Dublin.
Just 23% of the applications have met the eligibility criteria.
The apartments were launched last week and are for key workers such as gardaí, nurses and teachers.
Applicants must also have a link to the local area and meet eligibility criteria around affordability, household size, and maximum income thresholds.
The application process remains open until 5 March and all eligible applicants will be entered into a lottery.
The apartments are being offered with rents that are up to 36% below market rate.
Thirty-five two-bed apartments are available at monthly rents of €1,710, ten three-bed apartments are €1,850 a month, and one large three-bed apartment is €2,100 a month.
Clúid, the not-for-profit housing association, was selected by Google after a competitive tender process to lease and manage all 46 apartments in the development.
Google has transferred the properties to Clúid on a 25-year lease in exchange for a small nominal fee.
The rents collected will be retained by Clúid to fund the management of the properties.
The homes are located in a renovated heritage building and a newly constructed building on Barrow Street, Dublin 4.
"There has been a phenomenal response to our discounted rent homes at Bolands Mills," said Clúid Chief Commercial Officer Eibhlin O'Connor.
"If people are still interested in applying, we urge them to familiarise themselves with the eligibility criteria to ensure a smooth application process."
"Clúid is open to partnering with other companies who may be inspired by this project and want to bring their own discounted rent homes to market," Ms O'Connor said.
Google bought Bolands Mills in 2018.
The complex and surrounding area have major historical significance.
During the 1916 Easter Rising, the buildings were occupied by rebel forces.
The nearby Boland's Bakery, which went on to become the Treasury Building, was the headquarters of the 3rd Battalion of Irish Volunteers under Éamon de Valera.
In September 2023, Google opened the first phase of its Bolands Mills development.
The historic Flour Mills building at the complex has been restored and adapted into a dedicated collaboration space for Google.
