Yeah I ended up with country clean. The landload had Greenstar already sorted for us last year (included in the rent) so I was unsure what offers were out there.

In the terms & conditions it mentions a cost at the end of the period with them? Do you know anything about this? :eek:

Nope, I didn't see anything like that on the website! And I asked one of their representatives on the phone was there any hidden charges or fees if we only wanted 9 months with them and they said no. They said all you pay is the 25 a month. So there shouldn't be any extra fees...

Hi, I have accomodation booked in "the student village" For half the year.
My friend just got an offer on third round offers so we want to move into a house together so i must find someone to move into my apartment to take over my lease as i already payed.
I payed 2200 for 1 room in a 6 bed, all female, apartment for 1st years and parking for the year is also paid (plus deposit of 200)
If anyone would like to have my room ill give it to them for 1700.

Any questions, feel free to ask.

yeah i can. I asked them if i could move out now and they said i would lose the 2200 i payed but if i got someone else to buy my lease that would be fine. Of course I would go to the student village office with any potential tenants to confirm this.
If someone wants to buy my lease i bought 2200. I will sell it to them for 1600. They can give their money to the office in the student village andthe student village then refunds me.

Hi, need some quick advice. Im starting my course in UCC on monday and am stuck between 2 places to live. One is right beside the college with five other girls and the other is much further away in dillions cross is a,much nicer house and cheaper. Would you recommend the house with fellow students or the one with no students as to making friends and socialising?

I'd go with the one nearer to college with the other students...but I am going with the assumption that you're new to UCC and don't know many people there. If you want to make friends I'd say living with other students is a good way to do it, especially if some of them are new too.

Also, Dillon's Cross is MILES away! 9am lectures would be tough!

I was looking at that saying I know where Dillions Cross is but couldn't place it! Then it clicked - Dillions Cross is the other side of the city, about a 30 minute walk from the college. Only thing though, is that the number 8 bus passes right through it, so you wouldn't have to always walk

Looking for a 3rd roommate for a nice 3 bed on Blarney street..

200 a month each. Gas heating, tv, broadband available, electric shower, new windows and the landlord seems like a lovely guy. (Collected me to view the house in his BMW listening to Missy Elliot!! )

Anyone near the music department would be an ideal housemate.

1 guy and 1 girl already so either or sex would be more than welcome!

PM asap if interested..place will prob be gone after the weekend

Hey guys. I have three rooms going in my current house that I need to fill urgently. I'm a postgrad student who just finished an arts degree and living in NYC for three months, and I just returned to an empty house as all my previous housemates scarpered.

Rooms are about €300/month each, though the smaller room goes for less just to be fair as its half the size of the others. Utilities not included and you'll have to take care of your own internet, but there is a big TV and PS2 that you're welcome to use. Small kitchen but all the other rooms - living room, bathroom - are decently sized. There's even a back patio too. Central heating, big windows in every room, you know the stuff.

My landlord prefers female students so sorry to cut out any guys looking... I'm personally not bothered but I don't want any trouble from him. It doesn't matter if you're a first year or a postgrad like me, any kind of student is welcome.

Anyway, to summarise:

3 bedrooms available for female students, €300/month, Magazine Road - 5 mins from UCC, No. 5 bus, no. 10 bus, etc.

PM me for details!

My friends always complain about the broadband in brookfield! One of my friend's housemates has to sit on the top of the stairs to get good reception! It seems really awkward! Most of my friends have 3 broadband and that seems a far better choice over paying for brookfield broadband!

Any update on internet in Brookfield. They were meant to be doing some work on it.

Lady Gagarin

Hey guys, just a followup to say I still have 3 free rooms on Magazine Road, and they're open to anyone interested as my landlord decided he doesn't mind male or female students now. €250/m minus utilities, Drop me a PM if interested.
