Flat Hunting


It has come to a point in my life where I now have to officially find somewhere of my own to live. Over the last 6 years I have gone from child to student to traveller to well adult I guess now. It is more than a daunting process one that I am looking forward to in some aspects. In others dreading it...

Me and my boyfriend want to move to London. We ideally would like to live by ourselves after doing so in Australia for so long. However there is one massive stumbling block with that and its money. And isn't that just life's biggest issue. Finding a two bedroom flat to share with a friend is bad enough let alone trying to get that buy itself.

Another thing which is dragging is back is deposits, why must the be so expensive!! Wouldn't life be so much easier if those bad boys didn't exist. After having found the perfect flat for us to rent by ourselves we are now having to convince the landlord that we are serious about the flat, but we cant move in until August. Which to be honest is getting a little ridiculous.

Another thing I've noticed. Whilst browsing the Internet for flats, I have come across a large handful which just simply look terrible. If I was a letting agent/owner I would never allow my place to be marketed like that. At least make you bed before photographing it, maybe even a little tiding up, or even some washing up would be great. It just makes your whole place look shabby.

Rant over... If anyone has any tips or in fact a flat to rent that would be fabulous. Looking for the Putney/Fulham Area, 300 p/w max ish? Pretty Please and Thank You.
