Max Power1

€600 p/m for a 1 bed apt in drumcondra.

Contract is up for renewal in april afair so I will probably see if there is any wiggle room for negotiation. However I think, given the rates elsewhere in D9, I'm happy to pay €600 p/m.

timmythesheep

1250 a month for 2 bed in blackrock. Heat and hot water included. Refuse included. Screaming Indian kids included!!

TrimTOODLE

Should i have to pay the same amount of rent as every1 in the house even tho im in the box room (VERY SMALL)?
rent is 250/month each, 4people including me!
it just seems a bit unfair that i have to dish out €62.50 every week for a tiny room! my other house mates (good friends) pay the same for much larger bedrooms!

Victor

It would be usual for people with bigger rooms to pay somewhat more and those with smaller rooms to pay less, somewhat in proportion to room size.

Have a look at this (which is strict, but you can relax it somewhat if you want): http://boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2054867603
