Welcome to Roost

A quick tour of Roost and how to get the most out of it.

Welcome to Roost

Roost is a modern rentals platform built specifically for the Irish market. Whether you are looking for your next home or listing a property, Roost is designed to be fast, transparent, and honest.

What makes Roost different

  • Verified listings only — we check every ad before it goes live.
  • 48-hour response guarantee — landlords who don't respond within 48 hours lose visibility.
  • Fair-rent indicator — every listing is compared against local averages so you know if the price is reasonable.
  • No pop-ups, no dark patterns — the price you see is the price you pay.

Getting started as a renter

  2. Save properties you like — build your shortlist.
