Hi All,

I have got a job in Dublin and I am looking to move to Dublin by Feb / Mar 2019. My prospective employer is providing me temporary accommodation for 30 days. Will I be able to find a house / flat / apartment within this time? I just want to understand how much time will it take to find a rented house in Dublin?

Thanks
Shiva

Hi and welcome to the Forum.

My opinion is that you'll probably find a house, flat or apartment; the question will be whether you can afford the prices, Dublin is very expensive for most things.  This link will take you to a website with some properties for rent.

Hope this helps.

Thats interesting. I have a similar situation.

How much is enough for a good life style in Dublin. Rental and Car Insurance are outrageous.
