Try Active SearchWriting a useful rental prompt
What should I write in a rental search prompt?
Start with your city, maximum monthly rent and bedrooms. Add two or three preferences that matter to you, such as natural light, a balcony or space for a desk. Use a named station, campus or workplace for a location you care about.
Can I combine a budget, bedrooms and home preferences?
Yes. For example: “Two bedrooms in Dublin, up to €2,600 a month, with lots of natural light and a balcony preferred.” State which parts are essential. Preferences help rank eligible homes; inspect the listing evidence before deciding.
How do I search near a station, university or office?
Name the place in your prompt, for example University College Cork or Grand Canal Dock station. Supported proximity searches use straight-line distance rather than a verified walking route or journey time. Check your actual journey separately.
Can one search compare several cities?
Yes. Active Search can compare Dublin, Cork, Galway, and Limerick. Confirm the city scope when asked. A Rental Agent keeps looking within one city, so use a separate agent for another city within your plan limits.
What should I change if the results do not fit?
Check the interpreted city, rent ceiling and bedrooms first. Make unclear preferences more specific, or relax a genuine nice-to-have. Review any labelled alternatives before changing your requirements; a match percentage is fit for the prompt, not your chance of securing the home.
Do search prompts verify listing claims?
No. Prompts describe your requirements and help rank results. They do not verify availability, natural light, facilities, travel time or agreement terms. Check missing details with the advertiser.
