Expect €1500-2000 for a studio, €1800-2500 for a one-bedroom. Dublin is one of Europe's most expensive cities. Add 1 month deposit and €100-150 charges.
Rathmines and Ranelagh for young professionals, Dun Laoghaire for families (seaside), Drumcondra for tighter budgets. Avoid Temple Bar (too noisy and touristy).
When searching alone, expect 6-10 weeks. With a Remoters hunter, average is 3-4 weeks. Dublin has a major housing crisis, properties go within hours.
Landlords require: passport, PPS Number (Irish tax number), proof of income, references from previous landlords. A guarantor may be required.
Yes, the housing crisis has multiplied scams. Beware of low prices, group viewings ("open viewings") without verification. Use Daft.ie or MyHome.ie.
Dublin has a major housing crisis. Properties go within hours, viewings are group-based. A hunter can react immediately and build a strong application.
