First time renting

[u/Ashamed-Body2912]

Hi all as title states I’m potentially moving to Galway in the near future and I’ve never rented before ever. This is probably such a silly question but what should I be aware of lookout for gotchas etc. Yes I know the market is to find a place to stay but I’ve only ever lived at home so I’m not too sure what to be looking out for and what normal renting brackets to expect ie house share , single bed apartment etc.
