[Wanted/Share] House Share in Dun Laoghaire/near DCFE
-
09-08-2012 5:58am#1So I'm 18, female & starting in DCFE in a few weeks, gonna be doing music production. I don't know anyone going to college in Dublin so I'm looking for people to share a house with! I don't mind sharing with males or females, as long as you're not dry sh¡tes it's all good ha
I'm really easy going, love going out, gigs etc.. so I'd like to share with similar people! I'd like a room of my own and I wouldn't want to pay more than €350 a month! Anyone interested?

Hey there, I'm in the same boat looking for a place around there at the moment.
I'm 18, just starting out in college in IADT (hopefully), I'd be interested in joining this. I'll be studying Audio Visual Media Technology.
Just looking for laid back (not messy!) people I'm open minded, like going to gigs, meeting new people and so on!
Let me know anyway if anything spouts up!0 -
So that's 3 of us so far.. this could work 1 or 2 more people would be good to make the rent less expensive! Where should we be looking? I looked at houses on daft.ie but it's hard to know what the price would really be without knowing how many people would be living in it! Either of you have any ideas? I don't know Dublin that well so I wouldn't be too sure what areas I should be looking at 0

Hey guys, sorry for butting in
me and my friend are in the same boat, Dun Loaghaire is very dear to rent in the cheapest places ive seen start at around 450 per person per month!
Yeah they're pretty expensive. I was thinking rent could be cheaper by doing it this way rather than moving into a room in a house that people already live in.. But it's hard to know! Would you & your friend be interested in doing this too? Like a few of us together finding a house? If so then I think we should all look on those websites like daft.ie & rent.ie and send links of what houses look good 0 -

Hey I'm not sure if my friend is interested yet but if shes not. I saw this 4 bed place for 1500 a month i'd say if that doesnt include utilities it would work out about 400 a month or less...its the cheapest I've seen yet http://www.daft.ie/searchrental.daft?id=1245761 0

According to google maps it's only a few minutes from my college so yeah it's sounding alright so far! Doesn't look like that nice of a house but sure I suppose we can't afford to be picky haha :pac: I'll have a look too & see it I come across any others! That one says it has 2 double bedrooms & 2 single bedrooms so does that mean 6 of us could live there if some people don't mind sharing a room? What college/course are you & your friend doing? 0 -

I know its odd when no one knows each other really on here but I would like to express my interest in this idea, and even if we don't end up sharing together we might at least help one another out securing somewhere to stay.
Yeah I know we don't know each other here but I like knowing I'd be living with other students what course are you doing? 0 -

Well that's why I want to get a house with other students so I think we're on the same page haha :P are you gonna ask your friend if she's interested in this too? 0 -

Good point :P Haha well tbh I can't do much with it either but hopefully I'll learn! I still need to get my Leaving Cert results on Wednesday to be sure that I'm going but I only need 2 Cs so it's not too much to ask for! Where are you from? 0 -
Yep ill say it to her first thing tomorrow oh and for that house i think the double rooms have double beds so unless people want to share beds id say it would only fit 4 :P
Oh right didn't think of that! Ok well tell us what she says when you know if she's up for it then maybe we should e-mail the agent to sort out a viewing? Well after Wednesday anyway I suppose just to be sure I get the grades I need :pac: 0 -

Best of luck to you. I'm from the north west of this lovely country, though I have visited Dublin regularly. If I find a place to stay it will be nice to go to a gig/show and not have to think about driving back up after it.0 -

Thanks! I'm from the north west as well I've been in Dublin a good bit too, it's so different to where I live but it's always good craic! Did you look at the house in that link? 0 -

Yeah I had a look at it. That was a fair point from _linz_ about the bedrooms, but 4 should cover the costs if my basic math skills are ok. The place looks good enough from the pics. Was just checking the dublin bus website there, bus stop is very close to the house which is nice.0 -

Yeah I guess there won't be much going for less than €375 each anyway! Would be cool if it was single beds though so everyone who replied here could get it! Any chance you could give me a link to the bus stop that is near the house so I can see which buses stop at it? Are you going alone too or do you have friends in Dublin or anything? 0 -

I have a friend and relation in Dublin but they are both in the city centre. Even though its easy to get out there the constant travelling would put me off, I'd rather be closer to where I'm studying then I can decide whenever I want to go into the city. PMd the link to you. 0 -

Well loads of us are in the same boat so it won't be too bad! least thanks to this thread we'll be familiar with a few people yeah I thought the same.. living in the city seems like it'd be more fun 'cause you'd be closer to everything but I wouldn't be bothered with the travelling to college every day either! 0 -

Hey my friend isnt interested but i am ha :P the link of the house i put up is really near dun laoghaire and the number 7 bus goes right passed it
They both seem similar distances from Dun Laoghaire, 7/8 minutes! I wouldn't know that area of Dublin well so I'm just going by what the Internet says though, could be wrong. It's just that the Cabinteely one is a bit cheaper, well if we get at least 5 people for the rooms that is! & there's 5 of us that replied here. Dublin Bus website is confusing me but it seems like there are bus stops a few minutes from the house. We should see any house before we make a decision anyway 0 -

The one in Cabinteely looks really nice! Envy the crap out of who ever ends up with the balcony room though :P
The distance is nice too, I was afraid I'd have to look in the centre but I like the idea of keeping it somewhat coastal!
Yeah I think it's really nice too. I'd take it if we could/if the rest want to :P Lia_lia probably has a point that they're not going to want students to rent out a nice house like that though! We should see what they say anyway just in case! No idea what I'm meant to say if I'm gonna ring the number though.. I can imagine mentioning that we're students might put him off but there's no other way to ask if we can get it for the academic year.. Sure it's worth a try anyway 0 -
-
-
I guess just say there is a group of five students and very interested and lovely? :P And maybe he'll let us view it?
I imagine we're going to have to ring up a lot of places first, so keep looking too. What price are we hoping for, around 1800 like that place?
Yeah I'll just put on a mature sophisticated voice & hope it works haha, yeah I'd say you're right. Yep around that price, well that's just me anyway, not sure about the rest of us. I wouldn't really want to be paying much more than €350 each, but even a bit above that might be ok! I wouldn't mind living a bit further out from the college as long as there's buses available. So if the rest of you would be the same then maybe we can look a bit further out if there's nothing else closer to Dun Laoghaire around that price. Depends what you all think 0 -

Well Nothing Really Is Suitable For Us Yano? Two Of Us Start On The 10th So Time Is Ticking Never Done Anything Like This Before, Finding Somewhere To Live :P Damun Its Tricky! 0 -
-
We should get numbers definite because I'm seeing smaller ones that could work out maybe either, but most of this depends on numbers
Yeah, so everyone who replied to this thread - who is genuinely up for viewing some houses together? I am
We'd also need to sort out a day before I ring the guy about the house in Cabinteely. & I guess for the other house linked here and if we find any other suitable ones, we should do them all the same day if we can! Any day from the 21st on would be fine for me, how about the rest of you? 0 -
-
http://www.rent.ie/houses-to-let/Patrick-Street-Dun-Laoghaire-Co-Dublin/1228666/
That's a house too.
But the 21st is a little late, no? Lots of houses disappear...
Yeah that looks nice too but tbh I'd only be able to afford it if we got 6 or 7 people to live in it meaning some people would have to share rooms
Well the 18th is the next free day that I have 0 -
-
-
-
In regards to affording stuff, like who ever gets the nice double bedroom could pay a little more if money is an issue?
Hopefully we'll find something more manageable though
Yeah that could be done, depends what is yours & everyone else's budget? board stiff, lia_lia & _linz_ what's yours?0 -
