Expect to be asked to sign a lease. However, it is neither necessary nor universal to do so.

A rent book will include all the important details that would be in a lease.

As regards rights, once you sign and pay, it's yours. Keep paying and it stays yours (subject to the lease the landlord can give you one months notice). Take a look at http://www.threshold.ie/faqs.htm

Expect landlords and their agents to do what suits them if they want.
