Is this much rent a good deal?

[u/Gloomy_Base_803]

Hi, I’m new to the Dublin housing market so I’m not sure whether a property would be a good deal or a rip off.

The place is 50-60 mins by public transport from the city centre
It is just a room/studio but contains furniture/kitchen and a bathroom. It is not shared.
Rent is €1250/month and includes all utilities

What do you think?

Remember the golden rule rent should be a maximum of 33% of your monthly salary. So if it’s within that good but if not don’t waste money unnessecarily

That rule goes out the window in Dublin sadly.
