InformationYou should arrange accommodation before you arrive in Ireland, even for the first few days of your stay. Organise in advance to stay with friends or book yourself in to a hotel or a hostel in order to give yourself time to look around and get to grips with the accommodation situation in the area in which you plan to live.
Buying a houseIf you are thinking of buying a house, you need to be aware of the price trends in this country, the process by which houses are bought and sold and the initial costs that are involved.
Renting accommodationRented accommodation comes in many forms. You will be able to choose from houses, flats, apartments, house-shares and bed-sits, according to what suits your needs and your budget. You will need to know how these are advertised and rented and what your rights and responsibilities are as a tenant.
Buying agricultural landThere are no restrictions on the purchase or rent of residential property or non-agricultural land.
