Full Version: Question for Londoners

I sort of need help from somebody from London.

Chances are I will be moving there and I was wondering which area is a nice one to live there. I am looking for nice flat but not a luxurious one. Also any ideas how much a flat with two bedrooms can cost per month?

Thanks in advance for any advice,

I don't know the answer to your question, but living in London is expensive! From what I know a student studying in London, gets about 1.7x what any other student gets in the country (in the form of a loan) to cover living expenses, so I think your going to need a fair bit of cash to move to London.

Thx dude, but it will be for work, so I expect to get a salary in line with the cost of life. But I will have to find a place on my own and I just have no idea where to start.

Wouldn't it be easier if you just contacted an estate agent? :s

Eventually I will do that, but it's nice to have a couple of references. In any case it is not certain yet.

Hi

I live near London. If you want to have something half decent you will be paying over £1000 a month for two bedrooms, plus you then have council tax to pay which will be around £110 per month. It's an expensive city and there are alot of bad bad properties on offer so be careful.
