    I have a house in Dundrum that I want to rent. 3 bed-semi.
    If it went on the market tomorrow. Would it be gone by Christmas?

    If it were cheap enough, yes.
    You'd have to price below what people would expect to pay in that area, I imagine most people are reluctant to move before christmas

    Who knows - if there is someone out there looking for a place in Dundrum it will rent. If you don't advertise it then you definitely won't rent it!

    If you price it competitively and are realistic, of course.

    If you hold out for "what its worth" - maybe Xmas 2015.

    I've just moved into a place that was priced well and advertised well with lots of pictures. Our LL didn't have one void day

    How much rent would you expect for it?

    Not a great time of year for the rental market and rents are lower than they were. Figure out the right price and get it on the market. There is a good chance you will have a tenant in it at the beginning of Jan.

    There are quite a few ads on daft looking for places to rent and some looking for houses.

    Would you mind renting to someone who had a dog. These people find it hard to get a place to rent with a pet.
